The Spatial Dilemma of Disadvantaged Communities: From Cleaning to Tidying Up, How to Initiate the First step?

Space Up

15 Aug 2025

The disadvantaged communities in society, including the elderly, low-income families, and people with mobility impairments, are often limited by small living spaces, clutter, and cleaning difficulties. Although knowledge of organisation and tidying is becoming increasingly popular, "tidying up" remains an unattainable luxury for many low-income households. This article will outline the practical difficulties, current support measures, tripartite collaboration models, and suggested improvement methods, exploring feasible first steps from the perspectives of social structure and daily family life.

現實困難:優先考量安全與健康

基層家庭多住劏房、舊樓或細小單位,地方有限,歲月積存的物品除令環境凌亂,更帶來跌倒、蟲患、通道阻塞等風險,危及家中長者、小孩或行動不便人士的安全。長期資源匱乏使住戶傾向每件物件都想保留,避免浪費。即使知道雜亂,也難以身體力行,撥冗抽空或受身心狀態限制而無力處理。


社工/慈善團體/收納師:三方協作模式

現有社區服務例如聖雅各福群會舉辦「家居整理/收納講座」及救世軍「齊掃心事」等,透過教育引導及身體力行去幫助弱勢,從而改善居住環境質素。


當中運作模式包括社工個案轉介,慈善團體社區服務,整理師專業協作,強調步伐合宜,逐步改善空間。

  • 社工:評估個案及提供連結社會資源及福利支援。

  • 慈善團體:統籌服務行動,協調義工,探訪評估、進行大清潔、搬運物品等,並安排回訪。

  • 收納師:如資源許可,部分NGO會邀請收納師協助設計易執行空間整理方案(例如分類、動線、存放、圖示、標籤等),需要時更會訓練義工令協作更有效。


由清潔到整理:細步前行,無需一夜變天

  • 優先針對最需要改善的位置:如走道、床邊、廚廁等,務求安全先行。

  • 劃分區域,按步就班:無需強制追求硬指標,分階段進行住戶更願意改變,適應新習慣。

  • 分類簡化,減低壓力:常用物品放置易取區域,餘下以使用頻率區間存放,物品過載需作適度斷捨離。

  • 維持重於完美:長遠目標是是能維持安全整齊,不必追求「標準示範單位」。


資源與社區參與

如身邊有需要支援的對象,可代其向社區中心、社工或長者機構查詢。市民亦可捐贈合用物資、參與義工服務,親身支援弱勢家庭。


社會結構性挑戰

空間整理困難、雜物積壓,背後往往與住屋、資源分配、長期貧窮等深層社會問題有關,盡量避免聚集個人責任問題。需要社會、前線專業、住戶共同努力。每走出一步,即使微小改變,都可為弱勢家庭帶來更安全、有質量的生活。如果您對空間整理有興趣,請查看Space Up的 專業家居整理服務 來獲得更多幫助。
