We’re here to help you if you or your parents or grandparents, or someone you care about, are retired and need some help. Whoever is in need of some support, we can help with our
various services – a project manager for downsizing or decluttering, a teacher of digital devices, an advocate or an extra pair of admin eyes and ears – for you or your loved one.
We also signpost to trusted contacts in other related fields such as care, planning for the inevitable,
making and recording memories, home and trades.

The latest edition of our Silver Pages - a 40 page essential list of resources for later in life (or whenever you need it) is now available. If you would like a copy send us an email with your name and address to info@onestoporganisers.co.uk and we will post you a free copy.
Maybe you’ve not moved for 40 years, or maybe you're not as mobile or as energetic as you once were. Or perhaps a member of your family has passed away and you need some support.
We offer several different services for seniors, from home project management, like downsizing and decluttering, to regular or ad hoc help with administration, repairs to the home and getting digital help. We also run various events, from online information meetings about all things senior, to a twice-monthly online café and a monthly drop in Q&A session in a local church. Additionally, we help and advise families when someone has passed away or a room needs repurposing for carers to move in.
We work in collaboration with you, guiding you through what we are doing every step of the way. Whether it is a full house move, just a part of it, or even a stand-alone home organisation project, we can help. These projects and tasks can be overwhelming, mentally, physically and emotionally. We can help you with these, daunting tasks, as well as smaller things.
We have even travelled from London to the Highlands of Scotland to help clients with a house move to Glasgow City Centre, making sure that they moved out of their property in a stress-free way and were able to move into their new flat with everything unpacked and organised for them.
Many people come directly to us, recommended by our existing clients, but we often receive referrals from financial advisers, removal firms, estate agents and lawyers who want to make their clients’ lives as easy and stress-free as possible.
Working with older people and their families is our specialist subject, but we can also offer project support to anyone who is time poor or overwhelmed by a project. We are happy to discuss any project, and if we cannot help we will suggest someone who can.
We have been based in South West London since 2003, helping seniors and their families.
