EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of compassion and multitasking at the Kingston police station in the early 1970s. Two women police officers, dressed in their uniforms complete with peaked caps and jackets or cloaks, are hard at work. One officer is on the telephone, her expression focused as she communicates important information. The other officer is crouched down at her desk, cradling a little girl in her arms. The child, with her pigtails and dress, looks comforted and content in the officer's care. The scene is a poignant reminder of the important role women played in law enforcement during this era, breaking gender barriers and demonstrating their capabilities in traditionally male-dominated professions. The presence of the toy on the desk adds a touch of home and normalcy to the otherwise serious environment. This image, taken in the 1970s, is a significant historical document of women's employment and rights in Britain, particularly in the Metropolitan Police Force. The photograph, taken by renowned photographer Norman Hartnell, is a testament to the dedication and versatility of these women police officers, who were not only enforcing the law but also providing comfort and care to those in need.
