Homeshare in Great Somerford, near Malmesbury SN15

We are looking for a mature, friendly and reliable woman to share the home of an intelligent, pleasant older woman with a love of books, writing, conversation and going for walks with her small and very friendly dog. In exchange for low cost accommodation, we ask that you offer around 10 hours of support each week and provide a reassuring overnight presence. We carry out detailed interviews, references and a DBS check.

Please read the Homeshare West website before enquiring to ensure you fully understand the requirements. You must be employed and, where relevant, have the Right to Reside in the UK.

Support would include occasional cooking and shared meals, shopping, occasional outings, offering companionship and taking the small dog for a walk if the householder is unable to do so. Someone educated, who enjoys good conversation and loves dog would be ideal. A car owner is a must due to the rural location.

Homesharing is a lifestyle choice suited to considerate, grounded people who have the energy and willingness to offer support at the end of their working day. If you enjoy shared meals, stimulating conversation, and being part of someone’s life in a positive and meaningful way, we’d love to hear from you.
