I am looking to find a foreign student or worker who needs accommodation and would be prepared to look after the household in return for full bed and board. There would be light household chores to carry out, including cleaning, tidying and ironing. The accommodation would comprise of living in a 4 bedroom house - occupying their own bedroom with fitted wardrobes and en-suite bathroom. You would have access to all the household amenities and there would be a negotiable wage paid.

Do they have to be foreign?
What state/country do you live in?

No they do not have to be foreign it was just an idea to help students if necessary, coming to a strange country and accommodation would be provided.

We are based in the West Midlands in England

I will try and see if I can come up with any ideas. I don't know if craigslist.com covers England

I do hope that I'm not too late here with this answer for you! Craigslist.org does cover Great Britain if you would like to do some free advertising on the Internet. There are also a number of other sites on which to advertise for free that might be worldwide in their scope for advertising. Most of the free ones on which to advertise are listed below. I do know that some of them are worldwide.

The more sites on which you advertise, the more likely you will be able to find students. If you need help in wording your ad so that it would get the most exposure, I would be glad to help you.
