Ena Alice Evadne Leung-Walker can claim two firsts. In 1964, she was appointed accountant at the DCO branch in Georgetown, British Guiana (now Guyana), and the first woman to hold such a position in the Caribbean. In 1968, she was appointed manager of the Main Street, Georgetown, Demerara branch, the first female manager in Barclays DCO.
