Share and Care Homeshare CIC, the largest homeshare organisation in the UK, has released its 2024 report.
The report highlights how the primary reason for someone to consider a homeshare arrangement is memory issues, with 35% of householders living with dementia or other memory loss. This is closely followed by poor mobility, which accounts for 30% of homeshare arrangements.
Other drivers for homeshare include Parkinson’s disease, sight issues, heart conditions, anxiety, loneliness, arthritis and being at risk of falls. The report also reveals that there is often more than one driver for seeking a homeshare arrangement, such as dementia coupled with loneliness.
