Friendly visitor needed for a 74-year-old neighbor in Mbarara
Looking for a friendly person in Mbarara to visit Wambui once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Wambui, who's 74. Wambui lives alone in Mbarara, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Wambui loves birdwatching, 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 22 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Keep going, Lucy. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick!
