International Women's Day-Celebrating the extraordinary contribution that women make to serving their communities has been amazing. Grateful to West London University and Women out West for the warm welcome, also my privilege to support the Network of Women at New Scotland Yard.

Today we are celebrating International Women’s Day and the role our female officers and staff play in keeping people safe across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

International Women's Day is a day of reflection and action to tackle gender inequality! It's important to remember the intersectionality of race/gender and we need to keep pushing for Women of Colour to be included more in the progress being made #IWD2023 #EmbraceEquity

Today marks #InternationalWomensDay and we would like to celebrate all the female police officers and staff.
