'Angel Mums support group was started in September 2003, so we marked the occasion of 10 years of serving women who had lost children on Wed 11th September 2013 at our monthly meeting at the Protea Hotel, Hilton. They hotel generously host us free of charge for which we are so grateful. We have about 50 members on our books (sadly).
The candles we lit in memory of our children we lost, and also to show the strong circle of light we can bring to mums in their grief. It also symbolises the very close bonds our "circle" of grieving mums have formed.' Said Cherri Forsyth one of the founding members of this support group.
On reading this email received from Cherri Forsyth, the local Hilton Covered team of Desiree Hickinbotham and Doreen Philip of DP Design decided that Angel Mums should have a Logo so that they will be able to print the business cards they have been wanting. They plan to have cards available at hospitals for mothers who have experienced a loss so that they know there is someone who has been through a similar loss that they can reach out to.
The Logo above was decided on and group members had the following to say about their new identity;
'The logo looks amazing. It fits what we are about.'
'I think it is great. What a good idea.'
'This is so beautiful, our Angels in our hands. What a great way to honour them. I love it.'
'This looks perfect and is certainly a generous gift.'
'What a fantastic gift. It generated the feeling of gentleness and protection to me.
Wonderful, what a special gift – I love it!'
'What a wonderful gift! I think the logo is super.'
We are pleased to have been able to offer this small gift to mark the tenth year of Angel Mums and the group will also have a complimentary listing page at HiltonVillage.co.za going forward so they can easily be contacted and kept in mind.
