Below is a selection of the many messages of appreciation that we have received from members:

The computer training has been invaluable to me. There’s no way I could have set up my website without Karla’s help.  The marketing tools are really useful and help make the posts more punchy and appealing. The photography classes have greatly improved my picture taking, helping me make the most of a simple camera.

Having the website and sharing my pictures on Facebook and then getting positive feedback helped give me the confidence to promote my work to Artesano in Moraira. I showed my work there for 3 months, selling pictures each month. I will be submitting work for the December show.

I don’t think I would have had the confidence to take my pictures to Artesano in the first place had I not got the positive feedback from Facebook, which I would not have had without the professional looking post shared from the website, which I would not have had without the training from GA.

Thank you Guardian Angels. I hope others can benefit from similar training.

The photography course was fabulous and Karla let my daughter come along as well because she wants to do photography. It has enabled me to create a range of greeting cards, notepads, postcards and a calendar!!! I can now photoshop all my pictures!! It was both informative and very productive for me.

The website building course has shown me how to set up a blogger site. My new range is online and I will be expanding my business into online shops in the new year. I knew how to create and use WordPress so it was great to learn another online set up style. Still undecided on which I prefer but the training has taught me some extra tools etc which are all written down in my bible….!!!

I well and truly picked Karla’s brains!! So thank you for the opportunity and watch out for some more online businesses…..!!

Thank you Vernon and to Guardian Angels for making a difference in my life and that of my precious children’s lives these last 2.5 years. You helped me through the most difficult period of my life, and I will always be incredibly grateful for that. We leave here as a family of 6 per God’s plan to make a new life in New Zealand. Thanks and God Bless xx

We have been very lucky and thankful to Guardian Angels for our mentor Vernon and his good lady Celia; they have both been very supportive, considering that they have been through a lot with us.

My second oldest son D missed his father very much and took it badly that he was never there for him, which caused a few problems: violent mood swings, withdrawal, picked on and hurting the younger children, refusing to attend school – the worst time was one school morning when D trashed his bedroom and tried to throw himself out of the window. With just one phone call to Tricia it was all organized that Vernon and Celia would be at our home to help me and watch D while I attended a meeting at Social Services.

Vernon has gone out of way to help D, like spending time with him talking and doing DIY together, which made a difference. They have both always been a fantastic support for me, nothing is ever too much trouble for them and it’s wonderful to have them at the end of the phone when I’ve had to get something off my chest or been a bit low, they seem to have an endless flow of unbiased, constructive advice and they’ve both survived bringing up teenage boys.

I have found GA to be a great source of support and information. I have made friends through it and also found some work (indirectly) by knowing someone from GA. I rediscovered Reiki through GA and numerous other positives in my life. Good job everyone.

I was a very early member of GA and I am so lucky that Tricia was there with her support with Guardian Angels five years ago. Without Tricia and GA, myself and my family would not have survived where we were in Spain. We now have a new life thanks to GA and their support xxxx

I am doing great now and I really appreciate you being there for me when I really needed it…a big  thank you XXX

Thnks Celia for always being by my side x.

A big thank you to Tricia and all the helpers for providing such a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, where I really feel able to relate to everyone and speak freely about the ups and downs of our situations!

I think it’s great, that as we gradually get to know each other, we can open up unashamedly and find the positives in our newly found freedom. And best of all, the kids really enjoy themselves in a safe environment!

As always the time goes far too quickly, but we leave on a high, looking forward to the next get-together in a month’s time! As my eldest said, the silver lining of our new status, is that we now “go to Guardian Angels!”

I wish the Guardian Angels well and thank you all for caring.

To all the committee members I just want to express appreciation for how much you help us all both practically and emotionally. The school book funding is literally a godsend and now you have begun providing funding for courses aimed to help us earn more. I am grateful for everything and I think you all deserve recognition for the amazing hard work, fund raising and networking that you do behind the scenes on our behalf. I feel blessed to be a single parent.

Thank you for everything and for being there for me.

“My son said this has been the best day of his life since we came to Spain.” (after a GA visit to the Bioparc)

Thank you Tricia for introducing me to Celia and Vernon, my two earth angels. Thanks for yesterday a lovely afternoon.x

Thanks to yourself and Tricia for calling, at the moment it means a lot to me to have contact with the outside world.

GA meant to me something similar to having a bodyguard when you feel you are on the verge of losing your hope and health. The mere fact of knowing they were always out there ready to help, gave me most of times the strength needed in order to get better. The generosity they displayed mesmerized me and gave me back the feeling of selfworth and thriving. To me, their sole existence was enough to start recovering from exhaustion, stress and what seemed to be endless sadness. I can not really portray with words the lifelasting gratitude I feel for them. I will always be there for them if they need me.They are a clear example of the enormous difference a sensible group of people can make to a monoparental family suffering from all the solitude and stress of a forced single parenting experience. My son still remembers our first celebration at the Pool Party 2015 and asks me for more funny days like that one by the pool. I can say they made feel again I had a lucky star.
