Friendly visitor needed for a 90-year-old neighbor in Kikuyu
Looking for a friendly person in Kikuyu to visit Brian once a week.
🇰🇪 Kikuyu, Kiambu, Kenya1,456 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Brian, who's 90. Brian lives alone in Kikuyu, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Brian loves cricket, 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

hope things get better soon, Auma. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Lucknow so I could bring a meal.
Praying for you, Auma. Hope this works out for you.
Hang in there. Get well soon. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Take care. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Please keep us posted!
Hope it all works out, Auma. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. All the best.
