A stunning Wishaw beauty is aiming to wow the judges and make it all the way to the final of Miss Great Britain.<\/p>\n

Holly Maclean, who is a nursery practitioner at Kirkstyle Early Learning Centre in Carluke, is aiming to make her mark again at Miss GB Glasgow having been a finalist last year.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old, who lives in Overtown, will be using her time in the competition to promote the Lanarkshire mental health charity You are my Sunshine (YAMS) as well as raising cash for Cancer Research UK.<\/p>\n

The former Clyde Valley High pupil said: \u201cIt was a really good opportunity for me last year and I had such a good time. It would mean a lot if I made it to the final, it would mean the world to me.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would encourage anyone to do this. If I can inspire other girls to follow their dreams then it would be amazing.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe girls are all incredible and you always have a great time. Last year I was able to do some travelling after I got some modelling opportunities.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been to Miami and will be heading to Italy and then Las Vegas later this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not a voting system, there will be interviews and on-stage rounds, it will be down to the judges on the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Holly has put her energy back into something positive having already raised \u00a31200 for YAMS through a pyjama party at nursery and a sponsored spin-athon at New Age Fitness in Wishaw.<\/p>\n

And she is putting the same commitment to raising cash for the cancer charity this time around.<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cI went through a tough few months after a relationship ended. I liked supporting You are my Sunshine because they focus on both children and adults.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought with the job I do in the nursery, that it\u2019s important to raise mental health awareness at a young age.”<\/p>\n
