A weekly visit for Serena, 73, who lives alone in Lecce

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

Lecce
I'm writing for my neighbor Serena, who's 73. Serena lives alone in Lecce, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Serena loves birdwatching, 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
