Tips on Being Ethical this Christmas

6 days ago

♻️Small choices can make a big difference at the most wonderful time of the year.

Here are some simple, stylish ways to keep Christmas kind to people and planet with the WeDoEthical award winner in Miss England 2025 , the reigning Miss London Charlotte Yeung!

Earrings; Handmade with recycled pippette tips Necklace; Vintage find older than Charlotte can remember… Photo ; Alan Strutt

🎁 Give with purpose
Choose ethical brands, handmade gifts, or experiences over fast-fashion and throwaway items. Donations, workshops, theatre tickets or spa days create memories, not waste.
♻️ Wrap it sustainably
Skip shiny paper. Use brown paper, fabric wraps (Furoshiki), scarves, newspapers, or reusable gift bags tied with string or ribbon.
🌱 Decorate consciously
Reuse decorations year after year, choose wooden or recycled ornaments, and opt for real greenery you can compost afterwards.
👗 Dress ethically
Rewear, restyle, rent, or buy vintage. If buying new, support ethical or sustainable designers and fabrics.
🍽️ Eat mindfully
Plan portions to reduce food waste, buy local where possible, and consider a plant-based dish or two for a lighter footprint.
💡 Save energy
Use LED fairy lights, set timers, and switch them off overnight to cut energy use.
🤍 Give back
Volunteer, donate to a charity close to your heart, or support community initiatives—kindness is the most ethical gift of all
Remember Ethical doesn’t mean less festive—it means more thoughtful

Miss Liverpool’s Mission: Inspiring Young Girls to Embrace Natural Beauty & Confidence after taking to the Miss England final stage Make up Free 

3 weeks ago

Press release December 2025

After winning the Miss England Bare Face Top Model award and securing a three-month influencer contract with award-winning natural skincare brand SpaVed, Miss Liverpool Paige Loren is determined to use her new platform to spark positive change among young girls across the UK browsing social media.

Photo of Paige make up free at the Miss England 2025 finals- make up free

Paige, who finished 8th overall in the national final, hopes her win will encourage the next generation to feel confident in their natural skin and be more confident about posting natural images of themselves instead of using filters and wearing too much make up.

“I have young cousins who lookup to me. Even Lottie my 7 year old  niece but  knows all about fillers, make up & filters on social media.  I want to try and change the narrative, and I believe it starts with social media. Young girls should feel empowered to go make up free and  post realistic images and accept themselves for who they are,” Paige said.

A Brave Bare-Face Moment at Miss England

When arriving at the Miss England finals held last month at the Grand Station Wolverhampton, Paige admitted she doubted her decision to compete completely make-up-free—especially when surrounded by contestants getting professionally glammed up.

“I did worry if I’d done the right thing when I saw everyone getting their makeup done. But once I walked out on the main stage make-up-free, I felt free. It was empowering as the judges saw the real me.”

Her bold choice paid off. The judges recognised her authenticity, awarding her the Bare Face Top Model title, a round which celebrates natural beauty and confidence from within.

A Model with International Experience

Paige is a part-time model and nail technician, is no stranger to the international stage, having proudly represented England and the UK at Top Model of the World in Egypt and Miss Charm in Vietnam. But this time, she wanted to stand for something different:

Make up Free Catwalk at Miss England by Alan Strutt

“I wanted to be a natural beauty at Miss England, and I’m thrilled it paid off. I might not have won the Miss England title, but being this year’s Bare Face winner means so much to me. If I help even one young girl feel more confident in her natural skin, I’ll have fulfilled my aim.”

About SpaVed – Award-Winning Natural Skincare

As part of her prize, Paige gets a collection of SpaVed Skincare & will collaborate with SpaVed, on social media ,  an award-winning British natural skincare company known for its gentle, effective formulations created with plant-powered ingredients.

Kamini Kapoor , founder of the SpaVed brand said

” At SpaVed, we recognise how significantly beauty expectations can influence confidence, especially for young people navigating an age of filtered imagery and comparison. The Bare Face Top Model initiative offers an important and refreshing counterbalance by highlighting authenticity and natural skin without added layers or perfection.

This year’s round brought meaningful attention to that message. Paige’s choice to compete make-up-free brought a clear focus back to natural skin and honesty on a national stage. Her participation aligns closely with the values behind this collaboration, and we are pleased to support a platform that encourages open, genuine conversations around beauty.

For SpaVed, this partnership extends beyond providing skincare; it reflects our core belief that beauty should feel accessible, honest and free from pressure. Working alongside Miss England allows us to contribute to a movement that promotes a kinder, more balanced understanding of what it means to feel comfortable in one’s own skin.”

Miss Sussex 2025: Where Veterinary Dreams Meet the Crown

2 months ago

Amy Joyce, Miss Sussex 2025/26, Miss England Finalist
Just over 4 months ago, I shared my journey of navigating vet school as a working-class
girl from Chichester with big dreams and a hot pink stethoscope. Today, I’m proud to be
writing this not only as a veterinary medicine student at the Royal Veterinary College,
but as Miss Sussex 2025 and a finalist in the Miss England competition.

Amy Joyce, Miss Sussex & Miss England Finalist, Photographed by Alan Strutt

Since becoming a Miss England finalist, the question I’ve been asked most is: How do
you balance it all? Veterinary school. Advocacy. Pageants. My answer is simple: I
stopped trying to fit a mould and started showing up as my whole self- muddy boots,
pink stethoscope, high heels and all.

When I entered vet school at the Royal Veterinary College, I already knew I would be
different. A working-class girl, the first in her family to go to university, studying at the

world’s top vet school- statistically, I wasn’t supposed to be here. But statistics never
met my unwavering determination.
And when I entered Miss England, I knew again that I wouldn’t fit the typical image. But
that’s exactly why I entered. Because it’s time we expanded the image. Success doesn’t
look one way. Beauty doesn’t sound one way. Purpose isn’t a singular path.

In this next chapter, as Miss Sussex, my mission remains clear: to show young people –
especially girls from disadvantaged backgrounds – that there is no singular mould for
success. You can be studious and stylish. You can scrub into surgery one day and step
onto a pageant stage the next. And most importantly, you can lead with both kindness
and conviction.

Over the past year, I’ve continued working alongside the Sutton Trust, raising awareness
around social mobility and speaking about accessing higher education. I’ve also
become increasingly involved in conversations about educational inequality –
highlighting how cuts to Pupil Premium funding are affecting students across the
country. I know first-hand how crucial that funding was to me- hat support wasn’t a
luxury. It was a lifeline. Textbooks, technology, transport – it all adds up, and no one
should be priced out of their potential. Now, I see that lifeline being pulled away from
others. Cuts to education funding and widening inequality are placing impossible
pressure on young people. I’ve made it my mission to raise awareness about these
challenges and to advocate for more inclusive policies – ones that don’t punish students
for their postcode or financial status.

My cause is education. Opportunity. Representation. I want to ensure that no young girl
ever feels she has to choose between her intelligence and her femininity, or silence
parts of herself to fit in. I wear my pink stethoscope with pride – not just because it
makes me smile, but because it represents the intersection of compassion and
confidence, intelligence and individuality. I bring that same pride to the Miss England
stage, where heels and gowns don’t erase my academic achievements – they add to
them. They’re proof that women are multi-dimensional, that strength comes in many
forms, and that no one should feel the need to shrink themselves to be taken seriously.
I want to help girls understand that femininity and intelligence can – and should –
coexist. That you can show up fully as yourself in any space and still command respect.
Miss England has given me the space to do that. Not by asking me to change, but by
challenging me to be even more of who I am. It’s allowed me to speak up for those still
finding their voice – and that, to me, is what real power looks like.
For too long, pageantry has been mischaracterised as simply about appearance. But
the modern Miss England is a changemaker, an advocate, a role model. Someone who
can connect with the community while campaigning for causes that matter.

Being Miss Sussex 2025 is a huge honour – but it’s also a responsibility. I carry with me
the stories of every young person who has ever been told their dreams were “too big.” I
carry my own story – the little girl from Chichester who spent weekends reading library
books and dreamed of changing the world in her own way.

And I carry the future, too. Because this journey isn’t just about becoming Miss England.
It’s about using every step, every stage, and every spotlight to fight for a future where
success is truly accessible to all – regardless of postcode or paycheck.

So here’s to the next chapter – pink stethoscope in one hand, heels in the other – and a
heart full of purpose. There is no finish line to this journey, because it has undeniably become the beginning
of a movement. The crown doesn’t just sit on my head; it stands for every young person
who dares to dream beyond their circumstances.
And I’m just getting started.

Evanjelin Elchmanar to Represent the Multicultural City of Birmingham in Miss England finals

2 months ago

Press Release For Immediate Release

The newly crowned Miss Birmingham 2025, Evanjelin Elchmanar, will proudly represent the vibrant and diverse city of Birmingham at the Miss England National Final this November being hosted over two days , 20th & 21st November  at the Grand Station Wolverhampton.

Evanjelin, a full-time model and charity founder, is the driving force behind Climate X Change, a non-profit organisation that has raised over £100,000 for sustainable, community-led environmental projects. Her long-term vision is to expand this work internationally, particularly in Sri Lanka, where she aims to create sustainable employment opportunities for single mothers.

“Representing Birmingham is such a proud moment for me, especially as I bring my story, passions, and purpose to the Miss England stage,” said Evanjelin. “My mission is to be a voice for diversity, sustainability, and self-love — because beauty isn’t just about what we see on the exterior; it’s about how we show up for ourselves, for others, and for the world around us.”

Currently based in Moseley, a leafy Birmingham suburb known for its creativity and cultural richness, Evanjelin enjoys sharing that J.R.R. Tolkien once lived there — with the area inspiring parts of his legendary Lord of the Rings novels.

Born in Paris as the city’s first Christmas baby of the new millennium, Evanjelin is of Sri Lankan heritage. Her family’s journey took her from Greece and France to the UK, where she grew up as the youngest of three siblings.

Her passion for the arts led her to Toronto, Canada, where she studied acting and TV presenting at Tafft College. During this time, she also developed a passion for cooking and health, inspired by a personal health challenge that reshaped her perspective on nutrition and lifestyle.

Beyond pageantry and modelling, Evanjelin is a singer, pianist, pageant coach, and soon-to-be entrepreneur — with plans to launch her own organic haircare line. She continues to develop her presenting career while remaining committed to charitable projects that make a lasting impact.

With her unique combination of talent, purpose, and multicultural heritage, Evanjelin will now carry Birmingham’s name onto the Miss England national stage, aiming to inspire others with her message of empowerment and sustainability.

The national final of Miss England takes place over two days on the 20th & 21st November .  To vote for Evanjelin in the competition download the Miss England app for FREE to place a FREE vote from 25th October 2025.

Lisa Austin Wins Bare Face Top Model at Miss England Semi Final — Embracing Authenticity, Purpose and Representation
Lisa Austin, a 25-year-old high fashion model and influencer talent manager from London, has been crowned the Bare Face Top Model winner at the Miss England semi-final, fast-tracking her place in the Miss England  national final. Sponsored by Caesium Skin Clinic, Lisa’s powerful decision to go completely makeup-free — without filters, wigs, or extensions — resonated strongly with judges.
“Honestly, I didn’t think I was going to win. There were so many beautiful girls in the competition but I chose to be very intentional and strip it all back. As a woman of colour, it can be challenging to embrace natural beauty in a world shaped by Western standards, but I wanted to show young Black and Brown girls that they are beautiful just as they are,” Lisa shared.
While proud of the award, Lisa is determined to be remembered for more than her looks. After a successful international modelling career — landing her first campaign with Gucci at just 19 — she made the conscious decision to step away from full-time modelling to focus on projects with purpose.
Her Beauty With a Purpose project, Because I Can, aims to empower young people from working-class and disadvantaged backgrounds to break into the media industry. By equipping them with skills, confidence, and opportunities, Lisa wants to amplify unheard voices and challenge stereotypes, creating more inclusive and authentic representation in media.
Lisa’s story is one of resilience. Bullied at school for being “lanky” and “awkwardly thin,” traits later celebrated in the fashion industry, Lisa turned modelling into a tool not just for success but for survival. Following the sudden loss of her father and grandmother, modelling gave her focus, and her income helped support her mother and fund her education. Over time, Lisa’s curiosity led her to explore behind the camera, developing her skills in photography and videography — talents she showcased in the Miss England “Explore the Nation” round, which she produced and edited herself.
Reflecting on her Bare Face entry, Lisa said:
 “Normally, I enjoy getting ready and being glammed up, but this round was about vulnerability and authenticity. I took a simple photo at home, no filters, no studio lights. It reminded me that true beauty comes from courage and purpose.”
Alongside her advocacy, Lisa is sporty and active, with a background in athletics, and continues to train through sprinting and high jump. She is also passionate about health and personal growth, recently enrolling in cooking classes to improve her nutrition and wellbeing.
With her dual British-Nigerian heritage and council estate upbringing, Lisa hopes to be the first British-Nigerian with dual nationality to represent England at Miss World — proving that no matter your background, it is possible to rise, to be seen, and to inspire change.
“I want to show up on the Miss England stage not just because I am ‘beautiful,’ but because I am a woman with purpose,” Lisa said.
Lisa is taking part in the Miss England Grand Final on the 20th & 21st November 2025 at the Grand Station Wolverhampton .

With the proportion of single adults increasing all the time  Milla Magee the reigning Miss England believes Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be exclusively romantic love. 

Milla,is  a single sponsored surfer and lifeguard reflects on her first kiss , her ideal date and the most romantic thing anyone has ever done for her (in her own words)

Milla’s ideal date is a having a flask on tea on the beach watching the sunset !

“Valentines Day is a great opportunity to celebrate love for friends, family, pets and even oneself” said Milla.

“Despite  living In a world full of dating apps and dating shows, I honestly think I’ll meet my person in the surf or sat having a cup of tea somewhere.

I was just 9 when a boy at school came up to me and gave me my first kiss on the cheek! It was so sweet !

I don’t believe in Love at First sight .. I’m a believer in getting to know someone first .

 

I think you can be attracted to someone at first sight but not love. Love is a powerful strong thing that is taken for granted now, and we need to treasure it.

I am currently single. I always say the right person will fit at the right time, I don’t like to go out and seek that, I know when it will be it will be.

The one and only romantic gesture I have ever received, was for my birthday and I happened to mention to a lovely guy I was friends with that I wanted a particular album for my record collection, I LOVE records.

He happened to find the record and drive all the way out of town to a record store miles away, and surprised me with this record on my birthday. I will forever be grateful and cherish the record in my collection.

An ideal dream date for me would be making a flask of tea and watching the sunset and the surf or doing something like that.

I’m very focused on my current Beauty with a Purpose GOFARWITHCPR project right now  and happy with my pets!

( Milla lives with 4 dogs and a kitten!)

I have 4 dogs. Two are mine and 2 are my sisters and they live at home in Newquay with us . I also have a kitten. I love animals so much.

There is so much I want to experience before I settle down, I don’t see myself settling until I am in a position were I can be the best partner for someone else. If the right person was to come along I’d welcome that into my life but right now I’m enjoying embracing everything life has to offer and meeting people from all walks of life and seeing the world.

I think I vision my future loves are just me surrounded with animals. Dogs, cats, horses, llamas, rabbits, goats haha the list could go on.”

Milla will be representing England at the 72nd Miss World ..

My Diary of Winning Supertalent SS21 in Paris –

1 year ago

Paige Loren Cannon James from Liverpool England, recent winner of Supertalent SS21 PARIS

(Also the FAB UP TOP MODEL winner and Miss England 2022 finalist)           Photos MilanRakicPhotography      Event Produced by @misssupertalent )

“I was invited to take part in the SS21 off Supertalent in September 2024 by Angie Beasley from the  Miss England  contest after winning the last Fab UK Top Model title at the Taj 51 Buckingham Gate in London.

I was so excited to have the opportunity to model in the Paris fashion week shows, it makes such a change from my normal day job as a nail technician!

I decided to go for it, its always been a dream to model at all the fashion weeks around the world!

My mum and family came with me to support me along the way.

I got ready for the trip making sure  I took all  I needed and off we went to Paris. The flight from Manchester is only around 1hour.  I felt very lucky to live so close to Paris as there was so many countries involved from all over the world, some having to travel over 10 hours.

My beautiful room mate Grace Richardson

Supertalent organised the hotel and I shared a room with Grace Richardson a lovely contestant from England who’s  a musical theatre student /model and the reigning Miss Leicestershire.

 On arrival  we had a tour around the amazing highlights  of Paris like the Eiffel Tower and Louvre museum.

We then headed down to the designer shops and visited fabulous restaurants etc.

We had the best time.

The iconic Eiffel Tower in Paris

On the Sunday we headed to meet the designers which was very exciting. I was selected with another 2 other contestants to model for a designer BYSEOWOO.   I got some amazing pictures by all the landmarks we visited In 3 different outfits. We visited museums and had some lovely food. Before we headed back to unwind ready for the next day.  I was then then asked to model for different designers including Byseowoo Nako, Pietu Couture dresses,  A New Golf Izabela Couture Mjadem Handbags and more.

There were around 50 ladies who all took part in the event where I made some life long friends.

The event was fantastic and I loved being apart off this experience, and to finish it off I couldn’t believe I got down to the final 3 in the Supertalent contest!  Stood next to the top 3 never did I think for one minute that my name would be called for the winner.

Thank you to everyone involved with the Paris Supertalent, my mum and family & Angie Beasley & FAB UK Magazine .

I cannot not wait to see what the future brings.
