A weekly visit for Gaurav, 82, who lives alone in Nagpur

Gaurav lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Gaurav, who's 82. Gaurav lives alone in Nagpur, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Gaurav loves old films, 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.

  • thinking of you, Akash. Wishing Gaurav a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Nagpur

    • Hope it all works out, Akash. Shared this with my family

      • Hope it all works out, Akash. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Bogotá
