Low cost accommodation in Edgware HA8

An elderly lady with very reduced mobility and memory issues is seeking a Sharer for her home to offer a mix of 15 hours’ help and company each week in exchange for the low-cost accommodation.

She is well-supported by family and carers, but would also like some general practical help around the home such as picking up shopping, preparing a light snack in some evenings each week, light cleaning and tidying, laundry support, carrying heavier items, and ad hoc practical help and errands as may be needed.

The accommodation on offer is a small double room furnished with a single bed, and shared use of the bathroom with bath and separate shower, kitchen, living room and garden.

The property is in Edgware, just 12 minutes’ walk from Queensbury Underground station. Jubilee line

The lady watches TV, musical shows always on the Indian channels. She likes to meditate and is spiritual.

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 from an Indian heritage, a vegetarian, 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.
