Cybher event for women bloggers

Around 300 women bloggers from across the UK will be in London on Saturday for a groundbreaking blogger event just for ladies.

Cybher is bringing together some of the most influential bloggers and speakers from all corners of the blogosphere to network, inspire, share and learn.

The day-event has a great line-up of speakers: Zoe Margolis of "Girl with a one track mind", Mario Cacciottolo of "Someone once told me", Poppy Disney of "What I wore today", Liz Scarff of "Blogladesh" for World Vision, Mark Solomon of "Tales from a black cab", and 10-year-old Biba of the oh-so-cute "BibasPhotos".

Cybher is the brainchild of Siân To, who notched up 15 years in PR before taking to blogging in 2009.

The following year, she founded CyberMummy and became an ambassador for Save the Children, a role that took her from the slums of Bangladesh to the UN summit in New York and tea at Downing Street.

Cybher is borne out of To's belief in the power of social media and her vision to see it used for social good.

She says: “We are so proud that Cybher can offer such a variety of workshops and activities for our bloggers to enjoy. Cybher has attracted woman from all blogging genres from beauty and fashion to parenting, travel, politics and more.

"Not only do these social savvy woman want to learn and develop the core content of their blogs, they also want to connect with brands that reflect their own key values as women.”
