Could you share an hour a week with Olivia?
Looking for a friendly person in Leeds to visit Olivia once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Olivia, who's 79. Olivia lives alone in Leeds, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Olivia loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Best of luck, Tiffany. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Los Angeles.
