We are delighted to share an inspiring update about Jess Gill, who recently represented the UK in the Ms Voluptuous International pageant while fundraising for S.H.E. UK during the Big Give campaign.

Jess raised an incredible £500, which was doubled through the Big Give match-fund, making a meaningful contribution to our work supporting survivors of childhood abuse and trauma.

At the pageant, Jess received several prestigious awards, including the title of “Women of the World’s Ambassador” for raising the highest amount for charity across all contestants. This award came with a crown and sash recognising her outstanding commitment to making a positive difference.

Jess also received the “Advocacy Award” for her powerful speech about her journey through trauma and the values she now champions. She went on to place as “second runner-up overall”, among her other honours.

We are incredibly proud of Jess, not only for her achievements on the pageant stage, but for the compassion, courage, and dedication she continues to show. Her commitment to empowerment, healing, and body positivity reflects the heart of what we stand for at S.H.E. UK.

Jess shared with us:

“Thank you for working with me. The pageant was incredible… I won ‘Women of the World’s Ambassador’ for the most money raised for charity, and the ‘Advocacy Award’ for my speech. Thank you again — I’m so grateful.”

We are deeply thankful for Jess’s support and for everyone who donated during the Big Give campaign. Together, your contributions are helping us continue our vital work.
