Skydive: 14th May 2024!

What does ‘Beauty With a Purpose’ mean to me?

It’s simple, this campaign and the Miss England advocacy inspired me to show complete authenticity.

I have always wanted to make a difference, before I became a Miss England contestant I had very clear views on what it was I wanted to do to make an impact. My purpose as a Miss England finalist is to raise awareness and educate the youth on street violence.

Some context:

Back in 2015, I lost my uncle due to gun crime. I witnessed and felt the heavy impact this had on my family.

Two years later at the age of 14 I attended the Ariana Grande concert at the Manchester Arena with a friend. The night took a drastic turn as a bomb was designated. It took the lives of 22 people, some of these being children. It was the most frightening night of my life and for the lives of many others.

My purpose goes further than just educating the youth. I can relate to the feeling of losing a loved one at the hands of another persons actions.

This is where I want to show my support to the families of those victims who sadly lost their lives at the bombing.

I am living proof that no matter what you go through, life goes on. What matters is how we deal with situations in life. That is what determines who we are and what we do next. We are all capable of being the person we want to be, no matter how hard it may feel at the time.

I want to be the woman people can come to, to talk to and to find comfort in.

My purpose has been and always will be; to be that extra reassurance - you are never alone, there is always someone out there you can talk to no matter what age, gender or what current situation you are going through. There is always help.

Thank you for taking your time to read my story, I hope I inspire anyone who reads this!

Beauty with a purpose is the advocacy for women to raise money for their chosen cause. 50% of the funds raised will go to BWAP and the other 50% will be going to I Love Manchester as a thank you for all the support that has been given to our community. I will be carrying this fundraiser on until the anniversary of the attack which will be on 22nd May 2024. Any funds raised after the Miss England finals on the 16th May will all be going to the I Heart Manchester fundraiser.

Thank you,

Modellé ❤️
