Companionship wanted: Mohammad's cricket and a cup of tea
Mohammad lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇬🇧 Leeds, England, United Kingdom742 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Mohammad, who's 87. Mohammad lives alone in Leeds, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Mohammad loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

You're not alone, Taslima. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Manila
