Homeshare
Housemates Re-invented
Homeshare brings together older people (the Householders) who have spare rooms, with people who need affordable accommodation (the Homesharers) and who are happy to chat and lend a hand. Homeshare can be a great and safe option for someone who misses having other people in their home.
The Householder
Benefits from some low-level support and company at home.
The Homesharer
Is offered not just a place to live, but a real home.
Together
Householders and Homesharers share home life, time, skills and experience.
Homeshare Gloucestershire
Carefully matches people, oversees the arrangements and provides professional ongoing support.
