WINNER – KAY COULSON
"I had asked Anne for some help with de-cluttering, as I am known to keeping receipts and other documents for decades. Under Anne's guidance we managed to go through three big plastic boxes and ended up with two bin bags full of rubbish, one box for shredding, one box for paper recycling and two carrier bags for the charity shop....so quite a result. Equipped with some useful tips on how to continue, I am now well on the road to a much more organised household. I found Anne very personable and I can certainly recommend her".

JEN MERRIETT was picked to win £100 to spend on any local business on thebestof Guernsey website.  Jen chose to use her voucher with The Farmhouse Hotel & Restaurant where she enjoyed one of their delicious afternoon teas.
“We spent an afternoon on the sunny veranda of The Farmhouse Restaurant enjoying their luxury afternoon tea.  Everything was delicious; I only wish they had remembered to bring us our scones and clotted cream (the highlight of my tea)! However, we did receive some warm scones to take away in the end.  Worth the splurge!”
