Miss Essex FM finalist
Good luck to Mosaic Publicity Junior PR Account Executive Rachael Bilby who has been shortlisted as a finalist in the Miss Essex FM beauty competition.Rachael, who will shortly be taking up her place on a ‘marketing and innovation’ degree at the University of Essex Business School in Southend, is keen to practise what she preaches and wants to help put Essex on the map.
She's a great believer in making the most of what Essex has to offer and prove that Essex girls really can have brains as well as beauty!
Hard-working Rachael has 4 A levels, 2 AS levels and 10 GCSE’s, all at grades between A* and B, achieved at Sir Charles Lucas School and the town’s Sixth Form College.
The Miss Essex FM competition is aiming to raise thousands of pounds for Essex FM presenters Martin and Su’s Essex Kids charity, which provides opportunities and support for children and young people who experience poverty and disadvantage or who are experiencing abuse, neglect, homelessness, violence or crime.
As part of the judging criteria, Rachael has to raise awareness about the charity and has to hold a fund-raising event during the summer, giving something back to the youth of Essex.
We’d like everyone to back her in this competition by logging on to the Essex FM website and voting for her online or by attending the awards event on August 28th at the Liquid & Envy nightclub in Basildon. Thank you.
