Introducing Managed Home Share
A new alternative for later life living. Bringing together all aspects of a happy and supported life in your own home.
Big benefits without big change
Managed Home Share brings older people together, matching those with an available room with those looking to share a home. Together they live in one of the sharers' homes and share home life, time and fun things to do with regular professional support. Sharing living costs and enabling both to live the life they want for years to come.
"I'd love some company"
Live with a similar aged person like yourself that you could choose to do things with, both inside and outside the home and enjoy a new friendship.
"I want to enjoy my life more"
Receive regular face to face meetings with your own home supporter who can arrange things you'd like to do and any in-home help, care or support.
"I'd like to stay at home"
You no longer have to consider moving into assisted living to receive support and social opportunities. All can now be achieved plus more in the comfort of your own home.
"I'm worried about my bills"
Save money by sharing living costs such as in-home help, transport and bills etc.
"I'd like to know someone is there"
This is not a short term matching but an opportunity for both people to live together for years to come with the same home supporters visiting and the ability to support changing needs as time goes on.

Is there a cost?
The scheme is designed to be a win:win for both sharers and less cost than living on your own or in other supported housing options, such as extra care or residential.
Accessing the service is free, including the Home Share set up and all arrangements. The fee for the ongoing professional support is covered for the homeowner by a contribution they receive for providing the home and for the sharer moving in, the rent they would normally pay but at a reduced amount.
