In 2002 , Angie became the director of Miss England Limited , when Julia Morley spilt the 4 UK countries , so now 4 girls get the opportunity to go to Miss World with the highest scoring becoming Miss UK .

The competition is noted for emphasising the importance of charity work, now a major part of the competition.  During the last few years, the Miss England competition alone has raised in excess of £1m for various children’s charities using the Miss World ‘Beauty with a Purpose’ ethos founded by Julia Morley.
