EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1978, showcases Amanda Reed, nee Longden, a trailblazing woman police officer and dog handler with the Metropolitan Police in London. Amanda is proudly depicted in her uniform, complete with a peaked cap adorned with checks and a cravat, as she works in harmony with her loyal police dog, Zircon. The grassy surroundings of London provide a serene backdrop to this powerful image of women's equality and employment in law enforcement. Amanda's presence as a policewoman in the 1970s was a significant milestone in British history. Women had only been allowed to join the Metropolitan Police as police constables since 1915, and it was not until 1976 that they were granted the same powers as their male counterparts. Amanda's role as a dog handler added another layer of complexity to her duties, making her an even more exceptional figure. Zircon, a German Shepherd or Alsatian, is an essential partner in Amanda's work. The bond between them is evident in their body language, as they both gaze intently at the camera with a sense of focus and determination. This photograph is a testament to the dedication, courage, and teamwork required of police officers and their canine companions, and it serves as a reminder of the progress made towards gender equality in the workplace. Amanda Reed's story is one of resilience, determination, and groundbreaking achievements. This photograph, taken in the late 1970s, captures a moment in time when women's roles in law enforcement were evolving, and the impact of their contributions was beginning to be recognized. The image of Amanda and Zircon, working together in the London metropolis, stands as a symbol of the strides made towards equality and the important role women continue to play in the police force today.
