A weekly visit for Kingsley, 72, who lives alone in Port Harcourt
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Kingsley is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Kingsley, who's 72. Kingsley lives alone in Port Harcourt, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Kingsley loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Wishing Kingsley a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Love from Konya.
Wishing you peace, Titilayo. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Nagpur this morning. Blessings.
Stay strong. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Greetings from Thiruvananthapuram
Wishing you peace, Titilayo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Port Harcourt.
You're not alone, Titilayo. Your post was clear and honest. Please keep us posted. Love from Giza.
