Temporary House Move Sky Services Advice

Hello All,
I have currently moved to my mothers house as a carer (not sure for how long) She has basic Broadband/Phone/Sky Tv Package (£87pm) , I have everything on my TV package (£128pm), but no Broadband or Phone. Both our contracts run out next week.
Trying to find the cheapest option to somehow merge the two, the issue is I cannot give up my contract as I use Sky Q and wont be able to re-subscribe to that when i move back. My options as I see them are:
1 - Cancel Mothers account, move everything to mine & submit change of address (problem is I will be tied to a 2 year Broadband setup - My home address is flats and Sky Broadband is really basic there).
2 - Move everything to my mothers account, but then I will lose the option to have Sky Q when I move back (Need Sky Q, Sky Glass is no good for my constant skipping/fast forwarding of sport recordings lol)
3 - Just have Sky Broadband/Phone on Mothers account, and plug my Sky Q box into her Aerial (Does work) but I have heard if I inform sky I have moved, they don't allow two accounts at one address ?
4 - Move everything to mothers account, but keep the most basic Sky Q account at my current address (this doesn't help in the "trying to save money" plan).
Any advice would be appreciated, I really am not sure of the best option (if I follow the proper channels & inform Sky).
