EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic moment of two brave and determined women police officers receiving their awards at the passing out parade of the Metropolitan Police Cadet School in London during the summer of 1981. The women, dressed in their smart uniforms complete with white shirts, peaked caps, black ties, and checkered trousers, proudly display their medals and badges as they stand tall and smile for the camera. The scene is filled with a sense of accomplishment and pride, as these trailblazers represent a significant step forward in the fight for gender equality and women's rights in law enforcement in Britain. The 1980s was a transformative decade for women in the workforce, and this image serves as a powerful reminder of the progress made and the challenges overcome. The officers' gloves and the busy background of people and activity add to the sense of action and movement, making for a truly historical and inspiring image.
