"Uniting Women In Law Enforcement" - it's a march planned for women's month to highlight the women within Belize's security forces. ASP Stacy Smith told us why it's important:
ASP Stacy Smith, Staff Officer
"In collaboration with Women's month which occurs in the month of March every year, the Belize police department will be hosting its first of a kind all Female Law Enforcement March and we have extended invitation to our sisters in law enforcement the Belize Coast Guard and the Belize Defence Force and they are expected to make representation along with us. The march will start off at approximately 9:00am. On the second March we leave from in front of the House of Culture and we proceed up Regent Street and onto Albert Street. This march will feature some over 650 police officers, coast guard and BDF combined and it is held under the theme of Uniting Women in Law Enforcement for a safer Belize. So we will like to take this opportunity to encourage everyone, those of you who are able to come down in the area, schools in particular to bring out the students and witness history in the making as we celebrate women in law enforcement."
