A weekly visit for Eliana, 76, who lives alone in Sheffield

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Eliana is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Eliana, who's 76. Eliana lives alone in Sheffield, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Eliana loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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. Thank you for reading my story.

    Thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Nagoya so I could bring a meal.
