Home Share for Her, a not-for-profit organisation in the Top of the South, has just launched its website portal, HomeShareforHer.nz as of 1 November 2023. The website is designed for women to connect with each other to address their housing needs and forge social connections.

HomeShare for Her, funded by the DIA, Tindall Foundation and Ministry for Women, took flight following Community Action Nelson’s ‘What is a home?’ exhibition in 2022 to tackle the housing crisis in Nelson and has grown into a fully-fledged, mutually beneficial, online service portal.

While HomeShare for Her is not a service for women in crisis, the website enables independent like-minded women to find affordable accommodation which will reduce the pressure on the public housing system.

Homeshareforher.nz has been designed to guide Home Owners and Home Seekers through the process of uploading their profiles and provides useful resource documents, like sharing agreements and police checks. A Home Owner could be someone who has a room or a section of their home they would like to share with another woman – a Home Seeker. Home Seekers can register their housing needs, view home spaces available, and also connect with other Home Seekers directly to hunt for a home together.
