Meet your Busy Experts - bringing you the Best of Manchester & Cheshire lifestyle

In 2006, after a busy few years as a business & lifestyle coach, Lucy O'Neill saw a pattern in her stressed clients complaining about having too much to do & not knowing who or what to turn to for daily help.

Lucy had a few answers but decided if they couldn't find the information locally then she'd better write about it herself. Creating The Busy Girls Guide to Manchester & Cheshire in late 2006, Lucy set out to advise on everything a busy woman would need offering real expert advice & local tried & tested recommendations. The site was instantly popular with local Busy Girls & even had some male followers!

In early 2007, the site expanded into a local network of female writers & lifestyle experts who are passionate about their expertise & experiences & now write about them weekly - just for you!
