I’ve just contacted a local organisation that is asking people to befriend a local elderly lady. I said I was only prepared to make an occasional but regular phone call but having talked, on another thread, about how lonely I felt at one point in my life I felt I should offer to help. I do hope that they vet befrienders thoroughly before introducing them to vulnerable people.
