House sharing when you're older
A house share or flatshare with people other than a partner or in a traditional family is common-place for younger people, but it’s also a great alternative to living alone when you're older.But if you’re aged 40+ then finding rooms to rent or the right flatmates can be difficult. That's why we started Cohabitas - listen to a recent BBC interview with co-founder Nick.
