Friendly visitor needed for an 89-year-old neighbor in Dundee
Looking for a friendly person in Dundee to visit Maverick once a week.
🇬🇧 Dundee, Scotland, United Kingdom764 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Maverick, who's 89. Maverick lives alone in Dundee, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 433 kilometers away.
Maverick loves chess, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hang in there, Luca. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out
Take care, Luca. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Kyiv.
