Recent research has revealed that less than half of Brits still bother with an annual spring clean.

The task, once dutifully carried out by proud home owners across the country, is being killed off by the benefits and pressures of modern-day life.


Spring Clean

One of the best ways to begin clearing your clutter, whether it be sorting out your physical clutter room-by-room or de-cluttering your financial life, is to set yourself goals.

That’s why Zurich has started their #ShareYourGoal campaign. They’re giving away £5,000 to four lucky winners for sharing their goals...

Importance of setting goals

You can sell things to local people on Facebook Groups for free. Unlike eBay, there are no fees for listing, no fees for selling and no fees for anything else.

Even better, Facebook is a network of friends and friends of friends – so you’re likely going to connect with like-minded people who trust you and share your interests.

With expert clutter selling advice from Actress and Comedian Caroline Bernstein​​​​​​​.
