No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After a broken pelvis, I have been mostly housebound for 10 weeks. My family live far away, and the days can feel very long. I'm not looking for therapy - I've that covered - but for conversation. I'm hoping for someone who can call for about 30 minutes once a week whenever suits us both. I like music, books and gardening, and can listen to anything. This can be from anywhere in the world as long as you speak English. We can arrange the calls through the platform, with email shared only when we're both comfortable. Thanks for even thinking about it. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Praying for you. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Los Angeles donated after I showed her your page.

    • Rooting for you, Wangari. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings

      • Wishing you the best, Wangari. Looking forward to the next update.

        • Keep going. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Newcastle this morning.

          • Good luck, Wangari. I hope things turn around soon.
