Companionship wanted: Anita's knitting and a cup of tea

I'm writing for my neighbor Anita, who's 78. Anita lives alone in Thrissur, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 782 kilometers away. Anita loves knitting, 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. Glad we found this place.
