Friendly visitor needed for a 72-year-old neighbor in Dwarka

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Swapna is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Swapna, who's 72. Swapna lives alone in Dwarka, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Swapna loves crossword puzzles, 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
