Homeshare is an extremely valuable and affordable opportunity to support Cornwall’s residents to stay independent at home for longer whilst also supporting residents with finding accommodation. If you are new to Homeshare, the premise is simple –
Homeshare matches householders with homesharers. A householder is an individual or couple with a spare room that would like practical support around the home and companionship. A homesharer is someone who needs affordable accommodation and can provide support and companionship to the householder for an agreed amount of hours per week. This arrangement doesn’t include personal care. All homesharers are vetted, and safeguarding is a crucial element of the service.
