When Lindsey Bamborough attended Newcastle Ladies' Day with her husband last year she never imagined that the event would change her life.
The mum-of-two from Woolsington had been struggling with her confidence after spending years caring for her son Connor, 11, who has an undiagnosed brain condition. But a rare day out at Newcastle Ladies' Day became a "turning point" for Lindsey after she was named best dressed at the event wearing a £19 spotty dress that left judges impressed.
And they weren't the only ones, with Newcastle model agency SALT Model Management offering Lindsey a modelling contract shortly after the event and urging her to apply for the Ms Great Britain pageant.
