EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of gender equality in the London Metropolitan Police Force during the late 1980s. The image features two dedicated police officers, one male (PC) and one female (WPC), both proudly wearing their ceremonial uniforms. The WPC in the foreground gracefully holds her clarinet, her expression reflecting her deep concentration as she prepares to play a melodic note. The PC in the background stands tall and poised, his attention focused on the music stand in front of him as he skillfully plays the flute. The presence of a silver trumpet, two drums, and other brass and percussion instruments nearby underscores the significance of the police band and the importance of musical performance in the force's rich tradition. The uniforms, with their distinctive bowler hats, braids, stripes, trousers, and badges, serve as a powerful reminder of the pride and dedication that comes with serving and protecting the people of London. This image is a testament to the progress made towards gender equality in law enforcement and the important role that women have come to play in the Metropolitan Police Force.
