Hi! I’m Sarah

Creating homes that feel lighter, calmer and easier to live in.

I'm Sarah, founder of Sarah Sorts It. I help people create homes that work better for them through practical, judgement-free decluttering and organisation.

My Story

It all started with my dad.

My dad died and he left behind many things. A warm, inviting house he'd built with my mum. It was filled with friends, family, celebrations and memories of a life well lived.

And stuff.

A whole lot more stuff than you'd immediately see.

My parents' house has always been clean and welcoming. They've always been house proud and loved having visitors. But behind cupboard doors were years' worth of things. Much of it was organised... but who really needs bank statements from 1996, no matter how neatly they're filed?

When clutter becomes something more

When my mum asked me to help clear my dad's belongings after he died, I was happy to help.

It was difficult and incredibly emotional for both of us, although often in different ways and at different times. Letting go of a loved one's belongings can be one of the hardest parts of grief.

But what surprised me most wasn't the sadness.

It was the anger.

I realised he'd unknowingly left this enormous task for us. At one of the hardest times in our lives, we were sorting through cupboards full of things that hadn't been used or touched for years.

Why Sarah Sorts It exists

Through that experience, clearing the house, the seed for Sarah Sorts It was planted.

There was more space, less stress and an overwhelming sense of relief. I realised decluttering isn't really about getting rid of things.

It's about creating space for the next chapter.

It's about making homes easier to live in.

It's about removing stress.

And sometimes, it's about helping people through life's biggest transitions with kindness and without judgement.

Learning from the best

To build my knowledge and give clients the very best support, I trained with Dilly Carter from BBC's Sort Your Life Out, completing her Professional Home Organisation course and gaining valuable hands-on experience.

I've since been putting everything I've learned into practice, helping people create homes that work for their lives. Not perfect homes, but real homes.

I hope your home can be the next one I can help declutter.
