A weekly visit for Kelechi, 86, who lives alone in Badagry

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Kelechi, who's 86. Kelechi lives alone in Badagry, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 899 kilometers away. Kelechi loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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.

  • good luck, Joy. Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Liverpool so I could bring a meal. Take care.
