A 6ft tall NHS paramedic has beaten anxiety over her height to swap her ambulance uniform for the catwalk in a bid to become the next winner of Miss England. Alice Jones, 26, never had a relationship at school because she was taller than all of the other boys, which left her feeling "like a freak".
She even had to take five months off work with West Midlands Ambulance Service to get therapy to help deal with her crippling anxiety, self-doubt, and body image issues. Alice said her problems stemmed from childhood and continued into adulthood before being exacerbated by the stresses of working during the pandemic.
But after tirelessly helping to save lives throughout the Covid outbreak, Alice bravely overcame her issues to grow in self-confidence and enter Miss England. Last Saturday (April 23) she swapped her paramedic scrubs and steel toe-tapped boots for a dress and high-heels to model on the catwalk at the National Prom Show in Birmingham.
