Homeshare York matches an older homeowner (the ‘Householder’) with a younger person (the ‘Homesharer’).
Being a Homeshare Householder
Homeshare York can match you at no cost with someone who can offer 10 hours' support a week in return for sharing your home.
A Homesharer could help with practical tasks such as:
- cleaning
- shopping
- gardening
You might just like someone to chat to or watch your favourite TV programme with.
A Homesharer can also provide:
- a reassuring overnight presence
- extra support to help you remain independent in your own home
In return you’d be offering accommodation to someone who's struggling to:
- get on the property ladder
- find affordable rental accommodation
