Enabling older people to live together in a safe and supported wayWhat does it do?
Share Home is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company offering a new, lower-cost way for older people to live safely and happily at home. We match homeowners who have a spare room with like-minded individuals, creating flexible, supportive households that bring independence, companionship and peace of mind. We take care of the whole process—from finding the right match and carrying out safety checks to providing ongoing support—so everyone can feel secure and confident.
Who it is for?
Share Home can support people in different life situations:
-
For those feeling lonely, a shared home can provide companionship and a sense of connection, helping to reduce social isolation.
-
For individuals who need light support, such as help with shopping, cooking or day-to-day tasks, having a sharer around offers practical assistance.
-
For people no longer feeling safe living alone, due to health needs or early stages of frailty, it provides a safe and lower cost living arrangement without the need to move into residential care.
-
For people in hospital it can support hospital discharge, helping people return home sooner and provide a long term supported solution at home.
