A weekly visit for Angel, 93, who lives alone in Birmingham

Looking for a friendly person in Birmingham to visit Angel once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Angel, who's 93. Angel lives alone in Birmingham, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Angel loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person. All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity. No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience. Thanks for being kind about this.
