New to Northern Ireland: Elder Home Share Brings 10 Years of Experience Helping Families in Ireland

Elder Home Share is new to Northern Ireland, but our roots run deep — we’ve been proudly supporting families across Ireland for ten years. Now, we’re bringing that trusted experience north to help families in Belfast and across Northern Ireland find affordable, safe, and meaningful home support for elderly parents.

When your mum or dad begins to feel lonely or needs a little extra help at home, it can be hard to know where to turn. Many families in Belfast are searching for “help for elderly parents in Northern Ireland” or “companionship for older people in Belfast” because they want their loved ones to stay safe, comfortable, and connected — at home, where they belong.

At Elder Home Share, we make that possible. Our Homeshare service carefully matches trusted companions with older people who would benefit from company and light support. It’s a simple, affordable alternative to a care home — and it’s changing lives for families every day.

How Homeshare Works

Elder Home Share connects older homeowners who could benefit from a friendly presence with responsible companions looking for affordable accommodation. It’s a relationship built on trust, support, and shared purpose.

One of our companions, Rakshita, recently shared her experience:

“The whole experience was very fulfilling and meaningful.”

That’s what Homeshare is all about — meaningful connection that makes everyday life brighter and safer for older people, and deeply rewarding for those who share their home.

Reassurance for Families

If you’re like many families we speak to, you might worry about safety, reliability, and finding the right person to help your mum or dad. That’s completely normal.

At Elder Home Share Northern Ireland, we personally guide every match — from screening companions to arranging introductions and ongoing support. You’re never left to figure it out alone.

As Rakshita shared:

“Saoirse was incredibly helpful and always available whenever needed, with regular monthly check-ins that made the process smooth and reassuring.”

“Bringing Elder Home Share to Belfast and across Northern Ireland — affordable companionship and home support to help elderly parents stay safe, happy, and independent.”

Those words mean everything to us — because they reflect what we want every family to feel: reassured, supported, and confident that their loved one is in good hands.

Support You Can Trust

Elder Home Share is built around safety, structure, and heart. We:

• Carefully reference check every companion.

• Match personalities and lifestyles for harmony.

• Provide monthly check-ins and ongoing support, ensuring everyone feels comfortable.

That same companion summed it up perfectly:

“Saoirse was always available whenever needed… it made the process smooth and reassuring.”

Those regular touchpoints are what keep every Homeshare match thriving — because we know this is about real people and real peace of mind.

A Meaningful Solution for Families in Northern Ireland

Families often contact us looking for:

• Help for elderly parents in Belfast who want to stay at home.

• Companionship for older people in Northern Ireland who live alone.

• Affordable home support in Belfast that isn’t a care home.

Our companions aren’t carers — they’re friendly, trustworthy people who offer presence, reassurance, and everyday help. It’s about dignity, independence, and connection.

Or as Rakshita put it:

“I couldn’t recommend Elder Home Share enough, especially for someone compassionate and caring — it’s truly a rewarding opportunity.”

That feeling of reward goes both ways — for companions, and for the families who see their loved ones happier and more connected than they’ve been in years.

A Safe and Heartfelt Choice

Homeshare works because it balances care and independence. It’s not just about help — it’s about human connection. When you know your parent has someone kind sharing their home, chatting over tea, and looking out for them, it brings enormous peace of mind.

If your mum or dad could benefit from companionship and light support at home, Elder Home Share Northern Ireland is here to help.
