About Homeshare:
-We are a Leeds City Council Scheme (we facilitate this opportunity in Barnsley)
-We take time to complete our processes before confirming any Homeshare arrangement.
-This includes background checks, telephone interview, ID checks and meeting in person
-We match people seeking good affordable accommodation, with householders requiring practical help and company in their home, who have a spare room to offer.
- Homeshare usually matches older people in their 70s, 80s or 90s with younger helpful sharers. Sometimes our householders are working-age adults with a disability who wish to benefit from practical help at home.
- Our focus is on affordability, support and shared living.
