What the Opportunity involves:
In return for the low-cost accommodation (£199 pm), we are looking to match the homeowner with a kind female Sharer who is happy to provide around 10 hours of practical support and companionship each week, and a reassuring presence at night.

Our Homeowner is a kind lady in her early 80s and sadly recently bereaved, who is looking to share her lovely home with a mature female who has a sunny disposition, good sense of humour and is a driver. There is a car available for the sharer to use.

The ideal Sharer will be happy to provide the homeowner with some help with grocery shopping, basic IT support, occasional car trips to see friends and some offers of cups of tea. This opportunity would suit someone working from home or with some flexibility or hybrid option, or a PhD or mature student. A vegetarian is preferred and whilst there are no pets in the home, a couple of dogs do visit the home regularly.

The £199 is a monthly facilitation fee for our matching and ongoing monitoring service. You do not pay the rent to the homeowner. Bills are included however you may need to make a small contribution towards council tax . (Full-time students are exempt).

We are looking to match this opportunity soon so if you are interested, please get in touch and tell us about yourself and why you would be suited to this Homeshare opportunity.

We are a social enterprise facilitating Homeshare matches across the UK. We match people who live alone and need some practical support and company, with mature adults wanting affordable accommodation who are happy to provide some companionship and practical support in return for a safe place to live.
