EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Sub-Inspector Cooke, an early woman police officer, as she stands proudly at her post in Bexhill-on-Sea, Sussex during the 1910s. The image showcases Sub-Inspector Cooke's dedication and commitment to her role in the Women Police Service (WPS), as signified by the "WPS" badge proudly displayed on her peaked cap. The leather strap of her hat, fastened with a collar and tie, completes her smart and authoritative uniform. The emergence of women in the police force during this era marked a significant step towards gender equality in the workforce. Sub-Inspector Cooke's presence on the force challenged societal norms and paved the way for future generations of women in law enforcement. The historical significance of this photograph is further emphasized by the quaint seaside setting of Bexhill-on-Sea. The peaceful atmosphere of the town contrasts sharply with the seriousness and determination conveyed by Sub-Inspector Cooke's stern gaze. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering insights into the early days of women in the police force and the evolving role of women in society. It serves as a reminder of the courage and resilience of women who broke barriers and blazed new trails, inspiring us to continue striving for equality and progress in all areas of life.
