I found shelter; still seeking sanctuary

I (Mona) found somewhere safe to stay for now in Leeds, but am still looking for something long-term.
As I no longer have a time-crunch in my search, I can try to find the perfect opportunity to share with a friend:
Amber and myself are trying to find a two-bed flat to share in central Salford or nearby Manchester, to begin collaborating on our creative &/ business endeavours.
I am available for freelance work as a singer, model, writer, and I enjoy volunteering at charitable projects, but some disabilities limit my access to these jobs on occasion and mean that I must locate myself centrally.
Amber, a graphic designer, artisan and musician, produces merchandise and records music with professionals who mostly work from Manchester; the sooner she can find local housing the sooner we can increase our workflows
