Could you share an hour a week with Megan?
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Megan is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Megan, who's 84. Megan lives alone in Johannesburg, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 662 kilometers away.
Megan loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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.
Thank you for reading my story.
