An extreme cleaner scrubs and tidies homes for FREE – and says it helps her mental health.

Ivana Uherksa, 41, struggled with depression and decided to help her neighbour clean her messy home.

The mum-of-one found it satisfying transforming the untidy space into a liveable adobe and started asking if anyone else needed help.

Now she has cleaned 10 houses for free so far – helping families and single parents get on top of their mess.

Ivana says the process helps with her own mental health and she hopes to set up a charity one day.

Ivana, a bar tender, from Shoreditch, London, said: “I got really depressed. I wasn’t happy with my life.
