Declutter Your Life: How Regular Organisation Can Bring Peace of Mind
Clutter isn’t just about messy rooms or overflowing closets; it's also about the chaos of disorganised essential documents and vital information. Over 90% of UK households report having clutter in their homes, with nearly half (47%) admitting it causes them stress. Decluttering regularly is critical — not only to tidy up your space but to securely manage your life's most essential information, from finances and property to taxes and estate plans. Enter Stronghold, a secure, reliable system designed specifically to keep your critical information neatly organised and readily accessible.
Why Regular Decluttering Matters
Did you know Britons spend approximately 110 days of their lives looking for lost items? Physical clutter often mirrors digital chaos, increasing the risk of losing essential documents or critical information. Nearly half of adults report clutter directly causes stress or anxiety. Decluttering regularly is more than aesthetics; it’s essential for your mental well-being and financial security.
Decluttering Isn’t Just Physical - It's About Your Critical Information
Many people mistakenly focus solely on physical decluttering - forgetting that vital documents such as insurance policies, tax records, property maintenance records and wills can become equally disorganised. Misplacing these can lead to serious issues like financial penalties or legal complications. HMRC recommends keeping payslips for at least 22 months, and self-employed records for 5+ years - illustrating the importance of systematic document management.
