Purpose of the Voluntary role:
The purpose of the Clean Team is to restore, dignity, order and cleanliness to an older or vulnerable persons home when for any number of reasons it has fallen into squalor and become overwhelming for the resident. With the consent of the resident the Clean Team will do a one off ‘deep clean’ blitz. A clean and orderly environment is restored and this often will give the resident a huge positive boost to regain control over their domestic circumstances. After this one off clearance we will work with the resident to where possible put in longer term support.
