Friendly visitor needed for a 75-year-old neighbor in Naivasha

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Sarah, who's 75. Sarah lives alone in Naivasha, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Sarah loves baking, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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. Thanks for being kind about this.
