Homeshare in Cheltenham, GL52

We are looking for a mature, friendly and reliable person who works from home to share the home of an older woman who has moderate/advanced dementia, who loves comedies and classical music. In exchange for low cost accommodation, we ask that you offer around 10 hours of support each week and provide a reassuring overnight presence. We carry out detailed interviews, references and a DBS check.

Please read the Homeshare West website before enquiring to ensure you fully understand the requirements. You must be employed and, where relevant, have the Right to Reside in the UK.

Support would include offering companionship, heating meals, helping with TV/telephone issues. Someone practical, positive, who loves animals and nature would be a great fit. Previous experience of Dementia would be beneficial.

Homesharing is a lifestyle choice suited to considerate, grounded people who have the energy and willingness to offer support at the end of their working day. If you enjoy shared meals, stimulating conversation, and being part of someone’s life in a positive and meaningful way, we’d love to hear from you.
