"But what a fabulous year it has been.
"I have had so many wonderful opportunities as Miss Lincolnshire, from working with charities close to my heart, to being on television and, of course, having the opportunity to represent the county in Miss England, where I was placed in the top 10.”
Charity work has been a highlight of her year, she says.
“During my reign I raised over £1,000 for BWAP (Beauty With a Purpose), a charity which helps disadvantage children all around the world,” she said.
