Low cost accommodation in Wokingham GR40

A friendly and interesting older person with reduced mobility is seeking a Sharer for their home to give them a mix of 15 hours’ help and company each week in exchange for the low-cost accommodation.

This person would really benefit from some practical help around the house including shopping, cooking a few meals, and help with light household chores, plus the friendly reassurance of having someone around their home ideally sometimes during the day ( even if working) and in the evenings/overnight.

The accommodation on offer is beautifully presented furnished double bedroom with ample storage and its own bathroom and a lovely house with garden in Wokingham.

Wokingham is around 20-25 minutes’ drive from Reading, and equidistance from the M4 3 and M4. Although the property is not far from Wokingham Station, it would best suit a driver with their own car; there is parking.

The person’s interests include the crossword, Radio 4, opera, reading ficture and watching some TV programmes, such as Gardening and Strictly.

As a Sharer you are free to work or study as long as you have enough spare time to give the agreed level of company and support. The ideal Sharer will work/study from home some of the time be a positive, friendly, kind, helpful and reliable non-smoker who ideally shares some of the person’s interests.

If you are interested, please email a little information about yourself, your hours of availability, if you can commit for at least a year, and why you are interested in, and think you may be suitable for, this share. We can then give you more details about this specific situation.
