IUM Miss Great Britain
Charlotte Rankin is 23-year-old and the current IUM Miss Great Britain. She will go on to represent Derbyshire at the IUM UK finals this August. While she loves the confidence and opportunities pageantry provides, her greatest passion is using her voice to make a lasting impact in her community.
Inspired by her own experiences with bullying, Charlotte founded Lottie’s Butterflies, a platform dedicated to empowering young people through education, advocacy, and kindness. She creates wellbeing resources, children’s books, workshops, and campaigns that encourage confidence, resilience, and open conversations about mental health.
Charlotte’s dedication to community service has earned her nominations for awards such as BBC radio Derby great neighbour award. Alongside fundraising, volunteering, and speaking at events, she uses her social media platforms to inspire others, promote important causes, and encourage people to believe in themselves.
As an IUM UK finalist, Charlotte hopes to continue championing mental health awareness, inspiring confidence in young people, and proving that true beauty is found in compassion, resilience, and the difference we make in the lives of others.

His captivating wood sculptures, primarily crafted with a chainsaw, reflect the organic beauty of the landscape and the rich history of the local area. Andrew believes in the power of community and often engages local people through interactive environmental sculpture workshops, making art a shared experience.
