The Miss England competition have launched a new award to their regional heats and final for 2017.
The Miss England Inspiration Award is a new award being introduced across England by the national director Angie Beasley.
The contestants in the Miss England regional heats & final are being invited to nominate someone who inspires them and why. It might be a parent, family member or friend or someone they know in the community.
“ Many of the Miss England contestants & heat organisers across the country have already achieved so much charity work in their local community and have raised thousands of pounds. Now we want to hear who really inspires the contestants and who deserves to be recognized at our national final this year ” said Angie .
“Its also to dispel the myths that the Miss England contest is just a beauty pageant , parading on a catwalk. We also want to highlight the good work that’s been done over the years in the competition. We continue to encourage fundraising as part of the competition but it would be great to recognise inspiring people at our national final. “
Over £1Billion pound has been raised for charity helping disadvantaged children and causes around the world at the Miss Miss World competitions using the Miss World slogan Beauty with a Purpose.
The chairwoman of Miss World Julia Morley is one of the few people in history to receive the Variety Humanitarian award.
HOW TO ENTER
Contestants & organisers are invited to submit approximately 100 words of who inspires them & why with a head shot photo. The regional organiser of Miss England heats will be selecting a top 5 who will then be invited along to the local event .
