"She is working hard in her local community fundraising for Together for Short Lives and will be holding several events over the summer."
The winner of Miss Junior Teen Great Britain will come away with prizes including £500 cash, dresses from The Dress Studio, a crown and a sash.
The finals weekend is set to include a beauty queen challenge day, a pyjama party at a hotel and an on-stage finale event.
