Low cost accommodation in NW3

An intelligent, educated older person with limited mobility and memory issues 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 light touch support including picking up shopping, making a few evening meals, help with the internet, light help around the home, plus the friendly reassurance of having someone around their home in the evenings and overnight.

The accommodation on offer is a double room (being decorated at the moment) and shared bathroom, and shared use of the kitchen and sitting room.

The property is in an excellent location just 5 minutes’ walk from Hampstead tube station.

The person enjoys listening to classical music and the radio, music, art, history and a wide variety of books. They do not have a television.

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 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.

£150 per month plus contribution to household bills (£60 per month).
