Sue Fish spent her entire career in the police, working her way up to Nottinghamshire chief constable. In a field dominated by men, Sue did radical work to champion women both in and out of the force. In 2016, she became the first chief constable to record misogyny as a hate crime. During her career, Sue saw the best of the police but also the worst. Since retiring, she’s opened up about her experience of sexism throughout her time in the force, to try to make a change for the next generation of officers. Sue retired in 2017, but now runs a consultancy firm where she continues her work campaigning on women’s safety.
