The power of the blogging and writing communities is something I’ve never underestimated.
Ask for some support or help, and it’s guaranteed that the blogging and writing communities will gather together and help.
Needless to say that I’ve never been let down when I have asked for help or support on a writing or blogging matter. I’ve often been overwhelmed by the amount of help and support offered to me.
On December 9th, 2019, I launched my fifth annual Christmas charity appeal to the blogging and writing communities. I asked bloggers, authors and writers to leave me links to their blogs, blog posts, author pages and books. For every link left, I would donate £1 to Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.
I’m delighted to announce that bloggers, authors and writers helped me raise over £250.
During the last five years, bloggers, authors and writers have helped me raise over £1,250 for charity.
As a thank you to everyone who left links on the 2019 Christmas charity appeal, I have created a ‘Top Blogs and Authors To Follow in 2020’ page on my blog.
You can access the page by clicking here or by clicking on the ‘Top Blogs and Authors To Follow in 2020’ button on the menu bar at the top of my blog.
If you get a chance, please do visit these bloggers and writers and thank them for the support they gave me in raising funds for Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.
The list will remain on my blog until the end of 2020.
On behalf of Toby, Austin and myself, thank you very much for helping us raise money for charity over the last five years.

Hugh, what an awesome, and meaningful organization to support.
You and your blogging friends did a wonderful job! Somewhere out there you (and your blogging friends and supporters) have saved lives, and made lives better for precious animals.
It’s a wonderful thought about saving lives and giving homeless animals a new loving home, Lea. We’ll be doing the same thing this December.
Great post! I’m new to blogging community, it’s so good to come across such amazing stuffs!
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed the post. It seems to have been a big hit with readers.
Very inspirational and motivational. Hugh you are doing just an amazing work.
Thank you so much, Ann.
oh my gosh! This is so inspiring! And your doggies are amazing
Thank you, Rachel. They did a great job at helping me raise all those funds for Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.
I have been wanting to get into the blogging community for awhile (or just the writing community, in general). Unfortunately, I’m INCREDIBLY shy and have to force myself to engage. This post, however, is very encouraging. Thank you for the kindness.
You’re welcome. I think many bloggers and writers are introverts so they can be shy in leaving the first comment. However, both the writing and blogging communities are really friendly. Not only have I made some great new friends through blogging, but I’ve been overwhelmed by the help and support both communities offer.
Thanks! If they’re as kind as you are, I’m excited to meet them, with open arms and dialogue.
