The Yates Family

Stacey and her gang – organiser Dilly, carpenter Rob and cleaner Iwan – challenge the Yates family to sort their life out in seven days. They will have to embark on a mammoth declutter, and the family will be asked to try to let go of half their possessions, so that the team can then beautifully reorganise their home.

With Stacey's help, the family start packing all their possessions into boxes. Every single item is stripped from the family home, revealing just how much space there is under all their belongings. We get to know the family behind the clutter. Single mum Rachel lives with daughters Amelia (15) and Madeline (11) in the family home, where dance is a passion for all. Rachel works full-time while also making and designing intricate dance costumes in her limited number of free evenings. Both of the girls dance competitively, so it's a busy household. The trio want to revitalise their home, which is full of clutter, including some of their dad Darren's old stuff, which hasn't been shifted since he and mum Rachel divorced six years ago.

With the house all packed up, the family's possessions are laid out in a giant warehouse like an art installation of their entire lives, including 103 old planks of wood, 277 medals and 829 pieces of fabric.

With everything displayed in front of them, the family are shocked to see how much they own and are left to wonder how it all fitted into their house in the first place.

There are emotional moments as the family go through their most treasured items. Rachel invites ex-husband Darren to the warehouse to help sort through the items he left in the family home. And there is hope, by clearing through the clutter, that a home free of junk will better support her daughters' neurodiversity, as Rachel discovers ways to let go of the items clogging up their lives.
