How to Downsize Gifts and Heirlooms
Welcome to the second of this series of articles dedicated to helping you to downsize, declutter and rightsize your life, brought to you by Ryman Healthcare in conjunction with organising and decluttering expert Peter Walsh.
This time we are tackling one of the more challenging aspects of downsizing – what to do with gifts and heirlooms. Whether you need to free up space in your own home or are helping someone else to downsize, this is a task that can feel daunting and emotionally charged.
Although it might be tempting to box everything up and hide it away to deal with another day, that just passes the problem down the road to your future self or to your family.

Dark night, poor light, motorcyclist going just a little too fast. She doesn't realise that the speed bump on the steepest part of Hill Street is 30cm (12 inches) high.
Bike and rider get launched into an unexpected, rotating crash. It doesn't end well, broken neck, early death...
Some of the new speed bumps are a health and safety disaster just waiting to happen.
