Moving home can take up a lot of headspace and easily become overwhelming, particularly if someone has lived in the same place for a long time or is going through a big life change.
This support is for people who are considering moving, or already in the process, and would benefit from some perspective, momentum and, where useful, research or practical input to help move things forward, while keeping wellbeing in mind.
This is short-term input during a transition. The role is to support clear thinking and planning, offering perspective and possibly carrying out some focused research, while also recognising the emotional side of moving home.
Input might include
- Reflection at key decision points
- Offering perspective during periods of uncertainty
- Area and property research to inform next steps
- Making sense of information from agents, sellers or solicitors
- Practical check-ins to maintain momentum.
People remain responsible for their own decisions.
How it works
It’s helpful to start with an initial conversation to understand where you are and what would be most useful.
Experience
I draw on experience across housing, planning, community work and wellbeing:
- Strategic planning and consultancy work focused on place, housing and community wellbeing and prevention.
- Co-founding a socially-aware residential property organisation recognised for its excellent service.
- Working as a yoga teacher and supporting people’s health and wellbeing, as well as wider community health and prevention efforts.
I’d also love to see services like this more widely understood and available. I’ve shared some reflections and ideas on why it’s important and how this might be possible on my blog.
