Facts
Miss Johnson brought claims against Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust for unfair dismissal, direct race discrimination and harassment. A full merits hearing took place over three days in Manchester in March 2025. The claimant represented herself while the respondent was represented by a solicitor.
Decision
The tribunal found all three claims to be ill-founded and dismissed them. Oral reasons were provided at the hearing. No awards were made to the claimant.
Practical note
All claims including unfair dismissal and race discrimination were dismissed as ill-founded after a three-day hearing, with the self-represented claimant unsuccessful against an NHS Trust employer.
