A weekly visit for Titilayo, 84, who lives alone in Ikeja

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Titilayo, who's 84. Titilayo lives alone in Ikeja, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Titilayo loves old films, 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

  • Thinking of you and your family, Queen. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.

    • Sending love. Get well soon. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
