Anya said: “I’m passionate about promoting healthy habits and raising awareness about cancer prevention.

“Recent statistics show a rise in cancer rates, highlighting the need for proactive steps.

“I encourage regular check-ups and highlight the benefits of a balanced diet.

I’ve been involved in several initiatives to support cancer research and raise awareness.

“These experiences have shown me the power of community and individual action.

“If I’m fortunate enough to be crowned Ms Great Britain, I’m committed to using this platform to champion healthy living.

“I’m eager to collaborate with organizations like Macmillan Cancer Support and Cancer Research UK to create educational programs and reach a wider audience.”

The Ms Great Britain finals will take place on October 18, 2024.
