EDITORS COMMENTS
This group photograph showcases a team of trailblazing women police officers from the 1950s, who defied societal norms by balancing their duties as law enforcers with their passion for hockey. Among the nine officers, Chief Superintendent Barbara Lilian Kelley (centre) stands out, becoming the first woman to hold such a high rank in the Metropolitan Police Force. The team includes Elizabeth McClelland, Mary Atkinson, Sylvia King, Winifred Barber, Nettie Arnett, Jean Guthrie, Irene Stewart, and Nita Kingston. Their hockey sticks and gear are neatly arranged, reflecting their dedication to the sport they loved. The women, dressed in their police uniforms, don hockey socks and shoes, embodying the spirit of equality and breaking down barriers in both employment and sports. Their smiles radiate a sense of camaraderie and joy, demonstrating that their roles as police officers and hockey players were not mutually exclusive. This photograph is a testament to the history of women's rights and the strides made towards gender equality in the UK during the 1950s. It serves as a reminder of the remarkable women who paved the way for future generations to pursue their passions and careers, regardless of societal expectations.
