Friendly visitor needed for a 75-year-old neighbor in Auckland
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Isabella is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Isabella, who's 75. Isabella lives alone in Auckland, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Isabella loves chess, 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.
Thank you so much.

Keep going, Chloe. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Auckland.
thinking of you and your family. Get well soon. Thinking of Auckland.
Wishing you the best, Chloe. This could happen to any of us. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
Hope it all works out, Chloe. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Keep going, Chloe. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
