HOUSEHOLDER
A lovely lady in her 80’s, lives in a lovely spacious 5 bedroom house with a lovely garden in Muswell Hill. She currently has a tenant and a family member living with her but feels she like her house to feel like a home again. She spends most of her day pottering about the ground floor, she enjoys reading and likes to spend time in her library room with a wide selection of books and reading materials. She is well known to her neighbours and often has visitors pop in for tea/coffee and a chat.

She is able to get around the house and can manage stairs, likes to go on short walks to get some fresh air with the use of a mobility aid with seating for rest stops.

The ideal homesharer would be someone who is caring and easy going to support her in her home, this would help give her peace of mind that she will be secure and be able to continue living in her own home.

She is a light eater, so will prepare light meals for herself but welcomes help from a keen cook , particularly in keeping her kitchen tidy. She likes to settle in front of the television of an evening and heads up to bed anytime between 21:30-22:00.

Friends/neighbours visit quite frequently during the day, her family members do not live nearby but will visit as often as they can.
