Siân Pelleschi, president of APDO, said: “These two new appointments reflect our continuing commitment to the professional development and growth of each of our individual members, our expanding association and our wider international community.”

Siân continued: “The board and I are delighted to welcome Jaime and Amanda, who we are confident will be instrumental in furthering our aims and objectives as an association.”APDO, the UK’s membership association for decluttering and organising professionals, was founded in 2004, and is a non-profit organisation.
