Could you share an hour a week with Charles?
Charles lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Charles, who's 72. Charles lives alone in Leicester, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Charles loves crossword puzzles, 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
