Friendly visitor needed for a 77-year-old neighbor in Thika
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Nyambura is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Nyambura, who's 77. Nyambura lives alone in Thika, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 519 kilometers away.
Nyambura loves crossword puzzles, 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.
Glad we found this place.

Hang in there. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
