Proud to be representing the amazing female Merseyside Specials this weekend with Special Chief Inspector Laura Hart KPM Not too keen on the early alarm 😬 but what a great opportunity to network with other forces. Association of Special Constabulary Officers Merseyside Police

Early start for a Saturday but I’m off to the #WomenInPolicingConference it has the potential to be a great event! #earlyrisersclub

Brilliant to be attending the first ever large-scale national conference for Women in the Special Constabulary. Most police forces across UK represented. Listening to a female SC chief officer present to a full room, including so many SC female leaders, genuinely inspiring.

Great to be joined on screen by female volunteer police from York Regional Police Ontario Provincial Police @politsei Phoenix Police chaired by Dr Cheah Phaik Kin, volunteer female reserve officer in Malaysia. Interesting to hear international perspectives.
