Blogging Mama
BlogOn event – all the details you need…
As a blogger, I am always looking for partnerships that will allow me to work with brands and create content. I genuinely love doing this. My ultimate goal is to make this my full-time job. But as with anything in life, it doesn’t just happen overnight. It takes hard work and dedication.
I recently signed up for job opportunities from BlogOn and noticed they run events.

Location of PR events
As a Yorkshire Lass, I was impressed with the event they are running in the North of England. Often you find these PR events in London and the south of England. And it just isn’t feasible or cost-effective for us to travel to the event.
Event planning
It’s a running joke in our family that I should become an event planner. I am the one organising holidays, and trips during our holidays. I have endless emails about table bookings and our requirements with a child. Want a birthday party, I am there organising your preferences. All of this is on top of being a busy mama.
