Low cost accommodation in Twickenham TW1

A friendly older lady with poor short-term memory is seeking a Sharer for her home to give her a mix of 15 hours’ help and company each week in exchange for the low-cost accommodation.

She would value the friendly reassurance and company of having someone living in her home overnight. She would also like some additional general practical help around the home such as help with shopping, cooking/helping to cook and share four (or five meals), light cleaning and tidying, finding lost items, help with diary management, accompanying on some outings, and ad hoc practical help and errands as may be useful.

The accommodation on offer is a large double bedroom with its own bathroom in a spacious house with a beautiful garden.

The property is in a lovely location very close to the River Thames and just 10 minutes’ walk from Twickenham Station.

A retired photographer, the lady still writes and enjoys gardening, classical music, reading and the Arts in general.

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 be a positive, friendly, kind, helpful and reliable non-smoker who ideally shares some of the person’s interests. If someone drives that would be helpful for occasional outings/shopping trips.

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.

£165 per month plus contribution to household bills (£65 per month).
