About AgeVenture
Stay adventurous Stay learning Stay sharing
AgeVenture aims to create a mutually beneficial environment for the host and the companion. We believe both groups have something to offer. Our hosts with more lived experience are able to help share and guide their companion. Our companions can aid the host by helping them with small things that may be becoming more challenging, for example shopping, or using technology.

ADVENTURE
For both the host and the companion living together can bring a much needed sense of life and purpose. Many elderly and youth struggle with loneliness so having these two generations as companions will help their mental health. For many host's keeping adventure, change and excitement in their lives will be the difference between staying in their own home and moving to a nursing home.
LEARN
The hosts have a large amount of interesting life experience and can help guide and advise their companions. The companions can lend a hand to the host's and help them with day to day tasks like cooking, cleaning, shopping and teach them small things like using email.
SHARE
Being a university student and trying to find an apartment to rent can be extremely difficult; financially and emotionally. Living with an elderly host who has the space for a companion and can do with some extra money or help around the house will assist both groups.
