"On behalf of the Marbella
Town Hall I want to express our gratitude and our sincere
congratulations to Maurice Boland and the organisers of
the Haiti Gala Dinner for contributing to the great
reaction Marbella has shown as regards the Haiti
humanitarian catastrophe. This initiative
has been the most successful one carried out in Marbella and reflects the high
degree of commitment of our British and international community with the rest of
our society and particularly with those going through the nightmare of
devastation in Haiti. The British and
International community have shown Marbella has got a generous human heart and
that our town is a very special place to live in not only for the quality of
life or our climate but also because of the human quality of our people and the
British and international community in particular. The Town Hall is
proud of Maurice Boland being our fellow citizen and thanks to all those
involved in the unforgettable night we lived yesterday."
Jose Louis Hernandez- Tourist
Minister Marbella
"Both Rosslyn (vice consul) and I were really
delighted to attend this special event. This was an excellent example of
solidarity at its best. The event was at a beautiful location, perfectly
organised, with a delicious meal and excellent entertainment. We particularly
enjoyed the mix of well established entertainers like Stan and Kenny as well as
introducing new talents such as Christian and Rebecca.The team at the British
Consulate send their best wishes and congratulations to Maurice and his team for
organising such a wonderful and worthwhile evening that raised a considerable
amount of money to help make the lives of the people in Haiti a little bit
better."
Steve Jones - British Consul to Malaga
"Sometimes fund-raising galas can be dull,
self-congratulatory affairs but last nights' Haiti dinner was a delight in every
respect. From beginning to end it was packed with extremely talented
performances so diverse, from the fantastic operatic voice of Steven
Lloyd-Morgan to the hilarious irreverent humor of Stan Boardman, The young
talent of the Wow Factor winners to the old rockers Mel Williams and the
evergreen Kenny Lynch. The Marbella Big Band and the Gospel Choir
performed faultlessly with an added bonus of Maurice's young son Daniel who had
everyone on their feet, dancing the night away. A truly memorable evening
in aid of a very worthy cause. Well Done Maurice and his team for putting on
such a brilliant event at such short notice."
Joan Boardman, Audience member
"I just want to express my sincere gratitude to all who
helped me put this together in such short space of time… My right-hand woman,
Pattie Senker, as without her this would have been almost impossible. She is an
amazing woman and the bad news for her is that she will be called on to work on
ALL my charities ( I can almost hear her cringe from here!!!), Nick Holland for
the show co-ordination, Nigel Davis from Soto Events for the sound and lighting,
Laura Charles who´s table decorations etc made the ballroom look truly majestic,
Andrea from Essential Magazine for her amazing design work on posters, menus
etc, and of course the entertainers : Stan Boardman, Kenny Lynch, Dennis Taylor
(played golf with Mike England) Stephen Lloyd-Morgan, the legendary Mel
Williams. Wow Factor winner Christian Fa with the Unity Choir (amazing), WOW
Factor runner up the outstanding 15 year old Rebecca Tate who’s duet with
Stephen Lloyd-Morgan singing ‘The Prayer’ didn’t leave a dry eye in the house!!!
And Daniel Boland with the Marbella Big Band. I must also thank Rory Leader and
Darran Clark from Estepona Golf who let the golf course open against their
better judgment, and to all 80 Golfers who braved the weather! I want to also
give a big thank you to Aer Lingus for sponsoring flights, to The Euroweekly
News for their media support and finally EyePrint who looked after our printing.
But most importantly thank you to the public who supported this event.. "
