Miss Bury an official heat for Miss England and Miss World

Best Thing I Have Ever Done

admin — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 06:13:17 +0000

I entered Miss Bury after being scouted while I was working. It seemed really interesting and I couldn’t wait to apply to see if I could get through.

The best part of everything was meeting everyone on the day of the final and meeting new friends.

Taking part in Miss Bury has given me confidence in myself to do whatever I want to do and also has made me want to do so many more different shows in the future.

If you’re thinking of entering Miss Bury go for it. It was the best thing I have ever done and you get to meet some fantastic people who you will stay friends with for a long time. It also gives you a confidence boost which is really nice as they make you look so good on the night.

Go For It!

admin — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 05:14:40 +0000

I entered Miss Bury because people in my family have always said I should try out for something like this so I thought I would give it a go.

The best fun was leading up to the final as I was enjoying arranging and organising my charity fun day and working hard to get votes

Entering Miss Bury gave me more confidence.

If anyone is considering entering Miss Bury I’d say “Go for it and give it your best shot, you don’t have anything to lose!”

The show was the best part of the experience as it was so exhilarating. Also I loved getting to meet Miss England.

Taking part in Miss Bury gave me a huge confidence boost and made me want to raise some more money for charity.

If you’re thinking of entering go for it you will have an amazing time meeting new people and will have lots of fun!

You Don’t Have To Be A Size Zero

admin — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 06:16:54 +0000

I entered Miss Bury because I love to dress up, and I love proving that you don’t have to be a size 0 to get places in life. Also any excuse to raise money for charity I’m there!

The best part of the experience was raising so much money for charity and meeting new people.

Taking part in Miss Bury this has helped with my self-confidence.

If you’re thinking of entering then go for it. Even if you’ve had knock backs in the past, smile be yourself and most of all have fun.

Loved Meeting the Other Girls

admin — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 06:16:21 +0000

I entered Miss Bury because I had tried other Miss England heats and enjoyed the shows. I really wanted to try my home town one and finally win because I was nearly at the age limit for entering and I wanted to have one last try.

I loved meeting the other girls and rehearsing on the stage, then having all my friends and family watch me try for the Miss Bury crown. It was all very exciting.

Taking part in Miss Bury rebuilt my confidence on stage. I was a very nervous public speaker but as soon as we had finished rehearsing and made friends with everyone I was at ease and ready to take to the stage and be myself.

Magazine Jo Checkley, Dena Coleman former 70s beauty queen, her daughter Laura Coleman former Miss England 2008 and photographer Charlie Kaufman from the Fresh Academy.

Miss Bury wows Lions Club Carnival

Lisa — Sat, 11 Jun 2011 21:10:09 +0000

This Saturday Miss Bury, Cherrelle Slater, took part in the Lions Club Carnival parade. Despite the horrific hailstone and rain, there was only a 10 minutes delay on the parade

We were due to set of for the Bury Lions Club at 11am but due to the hailstone and rain we were delayed but around 10minutes untill it stopped

The carnival set off from outside Bury College heading towards the town centre with Cherrelle riding in a Pontiac Firebird car. With a crowd of 8,000 people greeting Cherrelle as she was driven down, it was a fantastic way to start off her reign as Miss Bury 2011.

Cherrelle said ‘The people of Bury were very supportive and all the children and the Mayor of Bury waved and smiled as I went by! The Bury Times took some great images and I got to see the cheerleaders and The Bury in Bloom float. The Band followed closely behind me playing a variety of instruments it was fantastic. It was Brilliant to help such a worthy cause raise funds for all local and international charities and I hope to do more for this organisation in the future. Thanks to the people who turned up in their thousands to help raise money.’

Thank you to David Ingham and Bury times for the images.
