I don't do real hoarding but am known to accumulate excessive amounts of 'stuff'. Not a big deal but it can be a serious disorder apparently. I must admit I never thought a local council would have a dedicated hoarding officer. www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ce5l5mvlg62omad shit and I don't know what to do with the kids "Mr Jolliffe, an experienced health and social care practitioner, has been a dedicated hoarding and de-cluttering officer with Woking Borough Council since January 2023."

One of the boats on our moorings had help with this issue recently - I and he/she thought it was a really helpful thing to do. No idea whether it was a charity or more official help or even paid for by the boater/a relative.

There was once a telly programme about a sitting tenant who refused to move. She was also a hoarder. When she finally died, the property owner began the process of removing the junk. But he found that the house had been so soundly rammed with crap that it had rotted the fabric of the building, and the only thing keeping it up was in fact the contents. The house was demolished. Oh dear.

I recall a story where someone had hoarded so many items on the upstairs floor of their house that the whole thing collapsed. Its very sad and one wonders what would cause this kind of outcome.
I know that pikeys hoard stolen power tools and they is understandable but other things are less so.
