 Lorraine and Keith live together as part of the County Council's shared live scheme. This is where an adult who is unable to live on their own, perhaps because of a learning disability or other condition, would benefit by living in their carer's family home. This way of offering care and support to people is an alternative to a residential care home. I was introduced to Keith fairly quickly actually and his parents had been looking for support because they knew that as they were aging that the time would come that Keith would need to live elsewhere. Things changed with Keith's family. Keith and I spoke about it, didn't we, that he wondered what would happen to him when his parents passed away and I said, well you'll come and live with me. And then after that all happened he said, am I part of your family now? And I said yes you are. The best part of shared lives for me is making a difference to the life of someone that wouldn't be able to make that difference for themselves. To enable them to do the things they want to do in their life and feel they have some control over it rather than being told what they have to do. One of the things we do on a Sunday, where do you go? Down the pub. What? A slingfold pub. Slingfold pub. He's made friends at the pub at Slingfold. I went back to Sri Lanka. Did we go back there because that's where you were born? You wanted to see where you were born? Yeah. Because you left there when you were two? Yeah they were. So you wanted to go and see it for yourself? Another value to me is the value it is for my family I think to be with Keith. Izzy waits on you doesn't she? She collects your plates and things and I've seen a different side of her and I'm very proud of them both for that. It's a lovely way to earn a living really and I don't see it as that to be honest. It's just very special. This is just one example of your choices for the future.
