A 23-year-old Corringham woman will be competing in a national final next month and is hoping for support from local businesses as she pursues her career.

Personal trainer Olivia Harris got into fitness in January 2022 for a better, healthier lifestyle and fell in love with the fitness routine.

And she has channelled that love into an ambition to be recognised for what she has achieved.

This year she decided to compete in the Miss Swimsuit UK 2023 and graduated through the Essex Heat last month and will now compete in the Miss Swimsuit UK 2023 Finals to be held in Manchester on Saturday, 24 June. 

She is looking for some sponsorship to be able to be at her best for the finals, saying: "If you're able to help me raise the funds, I would really appreciate your help and support to me reaching my goal of stepping on the stage and representing Essex."
