EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, eight intrepid women proudly display the new Surrey Police uniform introduced in 1973. The single-breasted jackets, with their four neatly aligned buttons, were a bold departure from the traditional double-breasted design, signaling a progressive shift in the force's approach to women in uniform. Trousers were now an option, offering greater comfort and practicality for female officers. The hat, a striking blend of black and white with a checked design, completed the contemporary look. From left to right, the women in this image are: an unidentified officer, Glynis Blacker, Lillian Kingham (nee Jacobs), Eileen Greenwood, another unidentified officer, Marie Coleman, Janice Dawkins, and Linda Hughes. Their confident poses exude a sense of duty and pride, reflecting the groundbreaking strides being made in women's employment and rights in the 1970s. The photograph, taken in Surrey, England, captures a pivotal moment in the history of British law enforcement, as women began to assert their place in the male-dominated world of police work. The uniforms, with their smart shirtsleeves, skirts, stockings, and tights, represent a significant step towards equality and recognition for women in the police force.
