Testimonial

First I want to give you a proper thank you for your great leadership of the Saving Family Memories course.

I really liked the way you got us all so engaged with the practical steps we all had a go at! Your advice and wisdom about tackling our projects was truly excellent, backed up with great handouts and tips to refer to.   

The whole course opened my eyes to recording some of my memories on video, and what a difference with good preparation they can make in impact and in bringing both the memory and the person telling the story so alive! 

So a heartfelt thank you - I'm sure I'll be in touch as I action my plans!”
