Could you help transform someone’s life?

Today we’re launching a new campaign to encourage more people across Herefordshire to become Shared Lives carers

Shared Lives carers open up their homes and their lives to adults who need extra support, helping them build confidence, develop independence and enjoy everyday life as part of their community

And you don’t need previous care experience or formal qualifications. We provide full training, an in depth induction, ongoing support and a careful matching process to make sure the arrangement works for everyone

Since 2022, more than 100 people in Herefordshire have become Shared Lives carers, making a real difference to the lives of others

Whether you’re looking to support someone long term or offer Shared Days or overnight breaks, there are different ways to get involved

You can also earn up to £650 a week for each adult you support

One decision could make a lasting difference to someone’s life, could Shared Lives be right for you?

🎉Positive Ageing Week is Returning for 2026!🎉

Between Friday 25 September and Friday 2 October, we will be celebrating the active ageing and the older people who make a positive difference in their communities

This year's theme, Connecting Generations, highlights how the experiences, knowledge and stories of older adults help inspire and support younger generations to adapt and remain active through the various stages of life and physical activity to the campaign

Active Herefordshire and Worcestershire , Age UK Wyvern , Your Worcester County , Age UK North Worcestershire and Herefordshire Council are joining forces to showcase inspirational stories from across both counties and are encouraging local organisations, community groups and residents to take part

Throughout the week, we are also encouraging organisations across the two counties to get involved using the hashtag and sharing their own stories

You can also download the Positive Ageing Week toolkit via the Active Herefordshire and Worcestershire website
