West Wirral is quickly establishing itself as a “blogosphere” hotspot with a host of celebrity bloggers and vloggers (video bloggers, for the uninitiated) making their homes here.
Blogging on subjects from travel to toddlers, grief to vintage fashions, our local bloggers have every topic covered.
In no particular order, here are some of our favourites.
Mini Travellers
Mini Travellers is the brainchild of West Kirby-based lawyer Karen Beddow. The award-winning travel blogger gives advice on travelling, home and abroad, as a family with 3 little girls. The blog has more than 35,000 followers across its social media pages.
