EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the determination and strength of two intrepid women police officers as they demonstrate self-defence techniques during an outdoor event in the early 1970s. Inspector Sheila Ward, dressed in her smart Metropolitan Police uniform complete with black tights and a Norman Hartnell-designed blouse, leads the demonstration with focus and authority. Her colleague, with grit and agility, skillfully tackles an assailant, showcasing the physical prowess and capability of women in law enforcement. The scene takes place on a sunny summer day, with a backdrop of colorful tents and marquees, adding a sense of festivity to the occasion. The image is a powerful reminder of the strides made towards gender equality in employment during this era, as women began to break down barriers and assert their presence in traditionally male-dominated fields. The struggle and action in the photograph underscore the importance of self-defence training for women, and the essential role of law enforcement in ensuring the safety and security of all members of society.
