    This was probably the most hectic week of my life but proud of what the lads got done! Thank you to everyone who donated their time to help, donated funds, watching this video.. Still can't believe we tackled what looked impossible. Barbara is in high spirits, can't imagine how the week must of felt for her.
    We have started Helping Peggy who lives local to us in Kent, very excited to share more news soon!

    Barbara, on the first day, was very quiet, stooped over a bit, and just not sure if they would finish the job. In the middle, she was standing a bit taller and seemed a little brighter. On the last day, she stood so tall and bright and cheery. Ben, you and the crew did wonders on the house and on Barbara. Truly wonderful!

      The thing is when you get old you are forgotten. Some think oh she won’t be around that long anyway so why bother or there are so many to help. I am 72 and recently disabled. I have always taken care of everything and now it is a struggle to get to the bathroom. I worry that my house and yard will fall to disrepair. I am lucky that I have 2 caring children but it was very hard to ask for help. I can keep the inside clean but the yard is a different story. I don’t expect that my house will be kept up the way I kept it but I hope to keep the boat floating😉. Barbara seems to have been left on her own for many years. When I see some of the cleaning videos like Clean with Barbie I see there are so many leading desperate lives. My admiration for people like Ben, his dad, volunteers and donators who can see and help; one person at a time also gives me hope in humanity.❤️

    That barbara was left and forgotten about to get into this sorry state was heartbreaking. But to see her home watertight and now somewhere that will be warmer for her may just give her the lift so badly missing from her life. There are more forgotten people in this country than people would think. Im am so glad you helped another.

      I appreciate your response, but I strongly believe that the local council has a responsibility to assist vulnerable residents like Barbara. It's reasonable to assume that they have contingency funds for emergencies like this. However, it seems that the council's priorities are misplaced, as they are more concerned with attending non-essential training such as learning newly-established pronouns. This is unacceptable, and I urge them to prioritize the needs of their residents over less urgent matters.

      @@cj.wijtmans For sure! I wanted to keep it short, but yes experiencing poverty is definitely something that can cause long-lasting trauma. It can get you stuck in constant survival mode of not being able to throw away something that might be "useful" or "valuable" (to yourself or others) later on.. It's seems to be a common childhood experience for many of those who suffer from hoarding disorder, similar to other types of traumatic experiences such as loss, abandonment or abuse. Apparently she has social workers visiting twice a week, I really hope they are giving her the care she needs.

    Barbara's inner joy shone through her smile. A home she gave up trying to save since that dreadful tree disaster which caused so much damage. Wow, the house looks gorgeous already compared to before scenes. A spot of paint, some new curtains for her. Some repairs to her concrete. I am sure some of the inside will need repairs in the rooms that suffered water damage. I bet Barbara will slowly clean up her house and once again take pride because her spirits have been lifted by the generosity of everyone who chipped in to help her. These kinds of efforts give proof that people still do care and gives all of us who watch it the belief we can all make a difference in this world. May Flawless Cleaning Services Ben and his dad including all those selfless businesses who helped Barbara, be blessed with people flocking to their businesses to buy their services and products because supporting small family businesses help their communities and keeps jobs and money in their local communities.
