What our Guardians are saying...

“Enfield has always been my hometown so to find out that Global Guardians had a property in the location advertised (Chasewood ave) I jumped at the opportunity and the property was and is high spec. I have enjoyed the diversity and spending time with the other Guardians in the house as well. I try and encourage guardians to speak to each other so when I moved in I started a group chat in WhatsApp this helps everyone to get to know each other a bit better and discuss any issues or useful information that others like to share. I enjoy the company of other Guardians which is why I do this and my door is always open for anyone in the house to have a chat as I think communication is so very important when sharing with other guardians. I enjoy Guardian life and the support we get from Global Guardians, no job to big or too small. Thank you all at Global Guardians for your continued support. I look forward too many years with you.”

“My name is Marc Craig and I moved into our Global Guardian property in Kennington, South London in August 2013 and we have been lucky enough to have been there ever since. Being a Global Guardian has been quite the adventure for many reasons but without doubt the best part of the experience so far has been it's location to Central London and being walking distance from Leake Street near to Waterloo Station. Leake Street was made famous by Banksy in 2008 when he held his Cans festival exhibition there. When that ended Leake Street became a legal space to do graffiti and street art. I had passed it numerous times in my travels going in and out of Central London (like so many other people it would seem) but I had never actually walked through it. I remember the day I did though and it was liking being given the creative jackpot and so started my journey into street art. Now, nearly 5 years later, the location of the Global Guardian building in Kennington has enabled me to build a successful creative career off the work I have done at Leake Street including being in a Guinness Instagram advert, working in collaboration with other established street artists such as Botjoy, Amara Por Dios and Gnasher and decorating the main hall space of The Vaults as part of the Wahaca "Day Of The Dead Festival". It has also meant I can run creative workshops with college students and homeless kids and give the tourists a bit of 15 minutes of fame by literally letting them paint on my mural. It would seem there is a rebel in everyone waiting to be set free. Eventually, like all Global Guardian buildings, our tenure will come to an end but for me this has been the best example of how being a guardian works in that not only do we secure empty buildings in a cost effective way but we also get the chance to indulge a creative career with a rent and location that makes this not only viable but also a reality. From securing this space at Braganza I was able to get the gig to paint at the five star Andaz Hotel next to Liverpool Street Station. I've attached the photo for you to see.”

“It's been almost 3 years since I moved in Farm Lane and you were the one helping me to understand what is global guardian life about. I would like to take this opportunity to say big THANK YOU! Over the last 20 years I've lived in many different places but this guardian experience was one of the best ones I've ever had. The location of place is great, the building itself really cool and the garden is like dream come true. The culture inside the house is wonderful; I met so many lovely people. But I would also like to mention that the help services from you was fantastic as well. I was often surprised by a fast response from your side when something went wrong in the house. People you send are always polite and professional but most of all they more often than not manage to fix the problem immediately. I told many of my friends about Global Guardians and recommended your services to them.”
