A weekly visit for Lwazi, 86, who lives alone in Durban
Lwazi lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Lwazi, who's 86. Lwazi lives alone in Durban, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Lwazi loves gardening, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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.
Glad we found this place.
