International Women’s Day is held regularly on 8th March every year.

If you are a blogger, and interested in issues that affect women we invite you to take part in our 5 day challenge.   The theme this year is #BettertheBalance and we will challenge and inspire everyone who joins to write a blog post which in some way talks about a better balance.

Be the Change on International Women’s Day

Most small business owners want to make a difference.  Want to bring a change to the world.  Rather than moaning about the status quo we mostly do as Ghandi exhorted “Be the change you want to see in the world.”

There is too much sword, bullet and bomb in the world. Use the pen. Or preferably the laptop, ipad or phone so it is easier to connect with others and get your voice heard.

Women continue to be amazing pioneers and reach important heights.  But often we can become a bit defined by looking after others and looking after their needs first. Nothing wrong with that as long as we don’t lose sight of who we are.

The blogging challenge can encourage women and men who are not in the public eye to speak up for what matters to them through their blog.  There is nobody telling you what to say or how to say it, and your blog post might make a difference to a reader and help their world to change for the better.

Our blogging challenges have been successful, and helped bloggers gain more visibility, and provide inspiration for what to write about.

One person’s boldness is another person’s everyday reality.  If each participant creates just one new meaningful blog post and supports others in the group we will have achieved our aim.

The Blogging Challenge  costs nothing although a donation to Womankind would be appreciated.  Your blog – and other women – will thank you for it.

So please join us!
