Why do you think that you might be suitable for this Homeshare opportunity?
I think I'd be suitable for this homeshare because I am really good with older people, took care of grandma when she was old, worked in a care home for a while, have a PVG in place already, really take a pleasure in helping people, and a voulenteer at two charities, and basically think I'm well matched to homeshare. It would also help me because I am hard up and would like to save for a flat of my own one day so I'd really appreciate saving £500 a month in rent.
