Friendly visitor needed for a 79-year-old neighbor in Kochi
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Rajesh is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Rajesh, who's 79. Rajesh lives alone in Kochi, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Rajesh loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you and your family, Madhu. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Kochi.
