Another Inspired Homeshare!

We are delighted to gain recognition for another of our many happy homeshare success stories!

Showcasing our inspired homesharers, as the Telegraph just have, enables more people to come together in shared living arrangements that can truly elevate their lives. Read more of Stephen and Deborah's story in The Telegraph - the second homeshare example in the feature.

Our matching platform, hapipod.com connects compatible hosts and lodgers in financially rewarding living arrangements that bring practical support and heart warming relationships beyond simply transactional. As such, we offer a great solution to the cost of living, rental and loneliness crises.

Our unique direct matching site is actually one of few initiatives that enable hosts to gain rent as well as regular help and company, and we open up homeshare to all independent householders with a spare room. Our initiative is therefore ideal not just for elderly hosts, but can be an invaluable lifeline for single parents and young families needing a little help with childcare or empty nesters and retirees wanting practical help with anything from dog walking to DIY or gardening.

Matching people on the basis of skills, requirements, personality and interests, as we do, means the scope for homeshare is infinite. We simply help the right people connect.

Every successful match is a reminder that sharing a home can change lives.

If you'd be interested in considering a homeshare tailored to you, visit hapipod.com to find out more.
