Role
There are currently twelve such constables - this is much lower than is historically listed as there have been as many as twenty one forest keepers in the past. However, the level of acquired knowledge within the Forest Keeper section means that they are acutely atuned to everyday activities on the forest. Generally the forest keepers act as forest rangers and very rarely use their powers as a constable. Policing issues are mainly left to the local territorial police forces, Essex Police or Metropolitan Police Service. However, there are times when the local police forces do not have geographical knowledge and that is where the forest keeper is most useful.

Famous quotes containing the word role:
“A few [women] warrant our attention not because they have the answer but because they have rejected the mentality that insists there must be one answer. What makes them role models is not how much or how little they work, how many or how few hats they wear, but rather how well they understand, and accept, that for all rewards there will be commensurate sacrifice; for all gains, some loss; for any pleasure, some pain.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
“Language makes it possible for a child to incorporate his parents’ verbal prohibitions, to make them part of himself....We don’t speak of a conscience yet in the child who is just acquiring language, but we can see very clearly how language plays an indispensable role in the formation of conscience. In fact, the moral achievement of man, the whole complex of factors that go into the organization of conscience is very largely based upon language.”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
“Women’s battle for financial equality has barely been joined, much less won. Society still traditionally assigns to woman the role of money-handler rather than money-maker, and our assigned specialty is far more likely to be home economics than financial economics.”
—Paula Nelson (b. 1945)
