Companionship wanted: Elias's cricket and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in London to visit Elias once a week.
🇬🇧 London, England, United Kingdom482 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Elias, who's 94. Elias lives alone in London, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Elias loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

You're not alone, Colton. Wishing Elias a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Please keep us posted. All the best.
Take care, Colton. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of London!
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
