Friendly visitor needed for a 76-year-old neighbor in Leeds
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Addison is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Addison, who's 76. Addison lives alone in Leeds, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 599 kilometers away.
Addison loves opera, 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending good thoughts. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
it takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Narayanganj this morning. Take care.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My neighbor in Jalandhar donated after I showed her your page.
you're not alone, Alexa. Wishing Addison a smooth procedure and a full recovery. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
