Friendly visitor needed for a 79-year-old neighbor in Cork
Eimear lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇮🇪 Cork, Munster, Ireland77 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Eimear, who's 79. Eimear lives alone in Cork, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Eimear 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
