Enliven Homeshare
Enliven Homeshare is a partnership between a householder - usually an older person with a spare room, and a homesharer, generally a younger person of integrity, or an overseas or mature student.
In return for a low rent room the homesharer provides help within the household. Homeshare is also available for couples and for people with disabilities.
Is Enliven Homeshare for you?
If you are a householder, please contact the Enliven Homeshare Coordinator - Deborah Biggs who will explain everything about Homeshare. If you want to go further, the coordinator will visit you to discuss your needs, so as to find the best possible match for you. If you are a homesharer, please contact the Enliven Homeshare Coordinator Deborah Biggs, who will ask you for some information about yourself, and arrange a meeting to discuss everything in detail.
Both the householder and homesharer will have ongoing support from the Enliven Homeshare Coordinator.
