Double Room

Homeshare is a supportive living arrangement where a sharer provides companionship, help with light household tasks, and, where applicable, offers occasional assistance to the householder. In return, the sharer is provided with accommodation in the household. This arrangement fosters a mutually beneficial relationship, offering social connection and practical support for the householder while providing the sharer with affordable housing.

Benefits for the Householder: The householder will benefit from the companionship of the sharer, which can help reduce feelings of isolation and loneliness. While not a caregiving arrangement, the sharer may provide light support with tasks such as shopping, light housekeeping, or accompanying the householder on outings, depending on their needs.

Benefits for the Sharer: In exchange for companionship and light support, the sharer receives affordable housing. This arrangement also fosters social engagement, allowing the sharer to enjoy a sense of community and connection with the householder. Additionally, the sharer has the flexibility to pursue their own interests, such as going out, while still offering meaningful support.

It is important to note that Homeshare is not a caregiving job advertisement. The focus is on mutual companionship and support, not professional care or assistance.
