Companionship wanted: Upul's knitting and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Dehiwala to visit Upul once a week.
🇱🇰 Dehiwala, Western, Sri Lanka484 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Upul, who's 81. Upul lives alone in Dehiwala, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Upul loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
