Olivia Green –

In 2017 Olivia won the first ever Miss Premier Ceylon title and also placed 2nd
runner up in Miss England the same year. From winning the title of Miss Premier
Ceylon Olivia had the privilege of visiting the beautiful island of Sri Lanka twice. This
was a once in a lifetime opportunity.
During her visit to the island she visited a local orphanage and worked alongside a
local charity to help pack food relief packages to help the local people who had been
effected by the floods that had hit the area.  Through placing 2nd runner up in Miss
England final I was also fortunate enough to be asked to travel to China to complete
in another international pageant.
Miss England opened up many new opportunities for me and I will be forever grateful
of this. Miss England is a completion that embowers women to be their true and
authentic selves and although there may only be one winner on the evening, even if
you do not walk away with the crown it does not mean your journey is over it may
just be the start of something new.
