Companionship wanted: Yaw's baking and a cup of tea
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Yaw is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Yaw, who's 88. Yaw lives alone in Accra, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 422 kilometers away.
Yaw loves baking, 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
