Friendly visitor needed for an 80-year-old neighbor in Pretoria
Chantel lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Chantel, who's 80. Chantel lives alone in Pretoria, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 434 kilometers away.
Chantel loves baking, 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.
