I actually don't even want to do it for profit either, or as a business. I would love to have any diabetic to stay with us (we have 2 spare bedrooms, 2 lounges and a spare bathroom) and would like to give diabetics an opportunity to have a holiday where they would know they have suitable food served up each day. That's it. Trouble is, if I do it as a B&B say then I have to have fire doors etc, and my deeds say I can't run a business at home. I don't actually want to make a profit, just to cover food and washing of towels and sheets basically. I did email another diabetic website asking if I could do something for them, as they offer diabetics some sort of holidays, but I haven't heard back.
I don't want to be an official business, I don't want to make a profit, I just live in such a beautiful bungalow with beautiful scenery and things to do, that I badly wish that somehow I could get to offer 'escapes' and possible help for people new diagnosed diabetic. Obviously I do not want to make a loss, but I do not want to be registered as a BB with all the extra fire regs and inspections etc.
I have been CRB checked, as I am allowed to look after vulnerable adults, but due to my fibromyalgia, it is difficult for me to help people with more physical difficulties.
I am just at a loss really as to how I could do things to help others unoffically......so to speak
