Sandie Peggie v Beth Upton/NHS Fife RECAP: Latest from NHS Fife trans changing room employment tribunal

We heard from charge nurse Angela Glancy and HR official Anne Hamilton.

This comes after Dr Kate Searle, one of Dr Upton’s line managers, was questioned by the tribunal for two days. Dr Searle broke down in tears in a dramatic session yesterday.

Dr Searle previously told the tribunal she believed what had happened between Ms Peggie and Dr Upton amounted to a hate incident and potentially a hate crime that was reportable to the police.

The tribunal was also told Dr Searle “flagrantly” breached confidentiality by sending out an email to consultants in Victoria Hospital’s emergency department defending Dr Upton’s position.
