An intelligent, educated and ‘with it’ older lady with poor eyesight is seeking a Sharer for her home to give them a mix of 15 hours’ help and company each week in exchange for the low-cost accommodation.
She person would value the friendly reassurance and company of having someone around their home in the evenings and overnight. She would also like some general practical help around her home such as picking up shopping, cooking and sharing a few meals, light cleaning and tidying, help with de-cluttering and organization, carrying heavier items, and ad hoc practical help and errands as may be needed.
The accommodation on offer is a furnished double bedroom, and shared use of the bathroom (there are two), kitchen, sitting room and garden.
The property is in Pewsey, a lovely village (you can walk to the Co-Op and independent shops) which does have a train station. It’s approx. 45 mins drive from the nearest big towns/cities (Swindon and Salisbury), but the charming Marlborough is quite close by (15 mins drive). It is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
The lady enjoys listening to talking books and newspapers, listing to Radio 4, playing Bridge and Mah Jong, the theatre, sculpture, card, writing and gardens.
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. The ideal Sharer will be a positive, friendly, kind, helpful and reliable non-smoker who ideally shares some of the person’s interests.
If you are interested, please email a little information about yourself, your hours of availability, if you can commit for at least a year, and 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.
