Hoarders (2016x23)

: 13, 2016

What possesses someone to save every scrap of paper or bread tag that’s ever come into their home? What compulsions drive Moira to cram her own home so full of collectibles and chickens that there is hardly any space for her? Or Stewart, whose house is so full of stuff the authorities have threatened to take his children away? Hoarding cost Judy her marriage. It’s a national problem, estimated to affect more than 600,000 Australians. It influences people’s safety and their relationships and can often lead to isolation, depression and homelessness.
