What the Opportunity entails:

 A friendly, independent, older person with a Parkinson’s 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 practical help around the house including cooking regular meals, shopping, going for walks, light help around the house, plus the company reassurance of having someone around their home in the evenings/overnight.

The accommodation on offer is a lovely newly decorated single bedroom, shared bathroom, in a large, bright, well-presented house with a beautiful garden.

The person enjoys watching some TV including quiz programmes, the news, The Voice etc. They have an interest in antiques and enjoy going for walks and outings, plus the company of family and friends. They like to try to keep as busy as they are able.

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, ideally with a little time during the day on a few days each week. The ideal Sharer will be a friendly and reliable female, non-smoker who speaks clear English, enjoys cooking, is neat and tidy, and ideally shares some of the person’s interests.

£125.00 plus VAT (£150.00) per month plus possible contribution to Council Tax (£50 per month). NB Full-time students are exempt from Council Tax.
