Taylor Barraclough, 18, has been picked as Miss Bradford Galaxy and is hoping to take the crown in the national competition in February 2016.

"In the pageant I am awarded points on evening wear, fashion wear, swimwear and an interview. I am very excited for February but as it's my first pageant I am very nervous!"
