Friendly visitor needed for a 75-year-old neighbor in Sydney
Looking for a friendly person in Sydney to visit Ella once a week.
🇦🇺 Sydney, New South Wales, Australia1,538 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Ella, who's 75. Ella lives alone in Sydney, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 538 kilometers away.
Ella loves old films, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

hope it all works out. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Greetings from Piraeus
Best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Tampa
good luck, Cora. Hope this works out for you.
Keep going, Cora. This could happen to any of us. After 25 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Thinking of you, Cora. Hope you get there.
