New business Together We Shine On to offer a new living concept for seniors

Together We Shine On will offer a fully furnished bungalow in a quiet neighbourhood in Blyth on a park-like setting.

A new business is opening in Huron County that will provide a comfortable home for mature and like-minded individuals to live together in a space that promotes peaceful and healthy lifestyles.

Together We Shine On will offer a fully furnished bungalow in a quiet neighbourhood in Blyth on a park-like setting. This will offer four individuals the chance to come together and enjoy life and community.

At the age of 50, and after illustrious careers – a park ranger, French wine expert, mustard maker, retail specialist, and stay home Dad – Travis Kell is now embarking on a new vision of establishing a home where three to four like-minded souls can live together and shine.

Kell is currently studying for a Senior Care Specialist diploma with an emphasis on Legacy Coaching and helping retired individuals realize their ongoing life potential through joys of food, music, nature and shared experiences.

“As an existing successful entrepreneur, I wanted to start my own legacy project, one where I could provide joy and give back to a sector of society I feel we tend to marginalize and not give proper attention or care to,” admitted Kell, who plans to open the home in mid June.

Shared in the home are the eat-in kitchen, three spacious sitting rooms, a movie viewing room and three washrooms, in addition to private bedrooms.

According to Kell there is no limit to how long tenants can stay at the home, however, he is unable to provide serious medical care or nursing.

Kell has established contact with local personal support workers qualified in Blyth who could pop into the home on a rotating basis if required, but he doesn’t plan to operate a nursing home.

“Residents will benefit from the human connection of sharing a lovely home together,” admitted Kell.

“They will be active in preparing meals. The view and settings are serene and peaceful, and the day-to-day life is one of harmony and calm, as opposed to other options that can feel too clinical or isolating.”

Together We Shine On is now interviewing for tenants in the mature adult shared residence for late spring 2025.

The home is looking for individuals who are interested in shared experiences and the company of others who enjoy activities, excursions and a happy, respectful living space.

This business venture is a new and wholesome concept to create a peaceful and positive environment for seniors in the area.

“I strive to find the right individuals to take the plunge and realize there is a better way to live life together with peers,” said Kell.

“Each day will bring happiness and positivity as being together and sharing experiences will make for an inspired life.”

Kell plans on hosting an open house on Saturday, May 31 from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. at 285 King Street in Blyth.
