Hide AdMiss England is not just about beauty and Jemma is hoping her sporting prowess will give her an advantage.
She said: “It’s about you as an all-round person so we have an eco-round, a sports round and we do a military style bootcamp.
“I am trained in taekwondo and working towards my black belt this year.”
Another element of the competition is charity work, and as well as supporting Bucks-based charity the Florence Nightingale Hospice and national charity Macintyre, she has also visited an orphanage in Africa.
