Elizabeth Grant (born 1996 in Preston, England) is an English model and beauty pageant titleholder who was crowned Miss England 2016. She previously had been Miss Preston.[1]

Grant won the title of Miss Preston in April 2016 and won the national title of Miss England in July the same year.[2] She competed for the Miss World 2016 title in Washington, D.C. in December 2016, where she also became the first Miss England to perform a rap as part of the talent round.[3]

Since becoming Miss England, Grant has become an ambassador for the Derian House hospice, a position motivated by the hospice's treatment of Grant's older now-deceased sister.[4] She is a student of psychology at Liverpool Hope University.
