Smart Works just got smarter!

A team effort by APDO organisers!

How do you take an already efficiently-run stockroom and make it even better? Hannah Ashwell-Dickinson (Declutter with Hannah) and nine other APDO colleagues did just that as part of National Organising Week (NOW) last week with North London charity Smart Works.The team, headed up by Marcella Caricasole (Think Tidy), joined forces to organise the stockroom and offices of the charity Smart Works as part of APDO's annual Donate a Day where professional organisers donate a day of their time and expertise to charities.Donate a Day was an idea introduced by APDO's President Katherine Blackler (SortMySpace) in 2016 when a team of six organisers helped to organise a charity's​ new stockroom. Katherine says “This year I was delighted to participate in one of 10 events across the country involving over 40 APDO members. It's amazing to see an idea grow with such momentum.â€
