This year, the focus of Shared Lives Week (15-21 June) is “Shout about Shared Lives – Care worth talking about” because:
- Great care shouldn’t be a secret
- If more people knew, more lives would change
The Shared Lives scheme enables adults with additional needs to live in a supportive, welcoming home with a host family on a short or long-term basis.
As a Shared Lives Carer, you will receive a tax-free income to open up your home and family life to someone who needs care and support. All you need is a spare bedroom and room in your family to support an adult and make a positive difference in their life.
