An older lady with reduced short-term memory is seeking a Sharer for her home to offer a little practical help and company each week in exchange for the low-cost accommodation.

She would value the friendly reassurance and company of having someone around her home in the evenings and overnight. She does a lot of things herself, and is well-supported by family, but would appreciate some help organizing day-to-day life and managing the flat including some food shopping, some cooking, socialising and ad hoc practical help, errands and outings.

The accommodation on offer is a double bedroom, furnished with a double bed, chest of drawers, wardrobe, bedside tables, table/desk and chair. There is a shared use of a bathroom and shower room, plus shared use of the kitchen and living room.

The property is in a wonderful location, just moments from the seafront, close to shops, and just 15 minutes’ walk from Hove Station.

The lady is friendly and enjoys a chat. She also enjoys swimming in the sea, walking and social activities. She has friendly neighbours and regularly sees friends and family. She will occasionally read The Guardian.

As a Sharer you are free to work or study as long as you have enough spare time (up to 15 hours per week in a mix of practical help plus a little company) to give the agreed level of company and support. The ideal Sharer will be a positive, friendly, kind, helpful and reliable non-smoker who ideally shares some of the lady’s interests.

If you are interested, please tell us a little information about yourself, your hours of availability, why you are interested in, and think you may be suitable for, this share. We can then give you more details about this specific situation.

£165 per month plus contribution to household bills (£65 per month).

Council tax band – C
