EDITORS COMMENTS
Millicent Duncan: A Pioneering Woman Police Officer in the 1910s This evocative photograph captures Millicent Duncan, an early woman police officer, in her full uniform during the 1910s. Millicent, with a determined expression and a sense of purpose in her eyes, embodies the spirit of the Women Police Service (WPS) in London during a time when women's roles in law enforcement were still a novelty. Millicent's uniform, complete with a brimmed hat, collar and tie, gloves, and a chain, is a testament to the commitment and dedication required to serve in the police force during this era. The brim of her hat shields her from the elements, while the chain signifies her rank and authority. Her gloves protect her hands, and the tie and collar add a sense of professionalism and formality to her appearance. Millicent's middle age and the creases on her uniform suggest years of hard work and service. Her presence in the police force was a significant step towards gender equality in the workplace, paving the way for future generations of women officers. The Women Police Service, established in 1915, was the first all-female police force in the UK, and Millicent was among the brave women who joined its ranks. This photograph is a historical reminder of the remarkable women who challenged societal norms and broke barriers to serve and protect their communities. Millicent Duncan's legacy continues to inspire and empower women in law enforcement and beyond.
