Friendly visitor needed for a 77-year-old neighbor in Ikeja
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Adaeze is asking for.
🇳🇬 Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria194 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Adaeze, who's 77. Adaeze lives alone in Ikeja, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Adaeze loves knitting, 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.
I hope life is good to you.
