Vicarious trauma can involve being preoccupied with thoughts about those you support outside of work or feeling angry or sad about the situation of people you support. Use the Hoarding Support Checklist to help you stay on track when supporting clients #HAW2025

Hoarding disorder, often intertwined with feelings of isolation, can significantly impact both the individual's well-being and their relationships. It can lead to physical health risks, mental health problems, and difficulties in daily life and social interactions

[Walsall Safeguarding Partnership @Safe_Walsall]

It’s day three of #HAW2025 and the focus is on impact of isolation and how to support clients in a sense of belonging rather than belongings.

[Walsall Safeguarding Partnership @Safe_Walsall]

Increased awareness can lead to better access to resources earlier intervention & more effective treatment options. It also educates the wider community on how to approach people struggling with hoarding in a compassionate and supportive way, fostering understanding and action.

[Walsall Safeguarding Partnership @Safe_Walsall]

Hoarding is often misunderstood as mere messiness or laziness, when in reality, it is a complex mental health condition that can severely impact a person’s well-being, relationships, and safety. 2

[Walsall Safeguarding Partnership @Safe_Walsall]

Raising awareness for hoarding disorder and behaviour is crucial because it helps break down stigma, promotes empathy, and encourages individuals to seek support without fear of judgment. 1

[Walsall Safeguarding Partnership @Safe_Walsall]

It’s day two of #HAW2025 and @safe_walsall want to encourage individuals and organisations to learn more about Hoarding. Do you know how to spot the signs and respond with empathy?
