A talk by Sheila Willis

​

Our journey of women in the British Police Force starts in the 1960’s when Sheila was a police officer.  A huge difference of policing without radios, mobile phones , where communications are made by the red phone boxes and standing outside of designated houses that had a home phone.  

 

We then travel back to the first world war where this journey of women officers really started.  Working through the years this is a presentation of interesting photographs, true events, plus a little musical quiz of television WPC’s as women officers in the past were called.

 

Handbags were in the official uniform and even umbrellas!  Can you imagine!
