Leafield Homeshare with active older person

TO EXPRESS YOUR INTEREST IN THIS OPPORTUNITY, AND TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT HOMESHARING, PLEASE CONTACT US VIA THE HOMESHARE OXFORDSHIRE WEBPAGE.

Would you like to share the home of an active and engaging older person in the hill-top village of Leafield, near Witney?!

The Householder, now retired from careers in pharmacy, teaching and computer systems, has continued to lead a very active life. He is a keen windsurfer, sailor and skier. He also enjoys walking, cycling and golf and has had many great walking and caravanning holidays.

The Householder’s interests are varied and include art and photography, music, reading, languages, as well as gardening, growing food and cooking. He is also involved in voluntary work with Fieldpaths as a walk leader, and with the British Society for Research into Ageing.

First and foremost, the Householder is looking forward to having someone else around in the house to share company, interesting conversation and most evening meals together. Some help with local shopping (in between deliveries) would be appreciated and some light housework could be welcome.

Help in the garden (with flowers and herbs) would be appreciated and there is the opportunity to help out on the allotment if of interest. Someone who would be happy to cook from time to time would be great.

A cycling or walking companion would be most welcome.,

This would suit a considerate, friendly and professional person who would enjoy lively, stimulating conversation and share some of the Householder's interests. Someone willing to help out in the ways outlined above and who would mainly be around evenings and weekends would work well.

The Householder is fully vaccinated against Covid-19 and is looking for a Sharer who has also been vaccinated and/or who whose own circumstances and lifestyle are low risk in terms of exposure to the virus..
