Miss Burnley 2010

The hunt is on for Miss Burnley 2010.

The event organiser, Nadia Musa said : "We haven't had anyone representing Burnley in the Miss England final for a few years, so it's important that this year we have an ambassador to represent the town.

"We're hoping as many local girls as possible enter the competition so we can show the rest of the UK that some of the most beautiful and intelligent girls in the country come from the Burnley area."

Whoever wins Miss Burnley 2010 will win a place in the Miss England semi-final. The finalist will then have a chance to go onto Miss World 2010 in Vietnam, where the main prize is $100,000.

The contestants must be ages between 17 and 24 and must never have been married or have children, have until Friday, February 26th, to enter via www.missburnley.co.uk.


The organisers also aim to raise money for the Variety Club Children's Charity through fundraising and activities with the competition final taking place on Thursday, May 27th, at Turf Moor.
