Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was heard at Bristol on 12-13 July 2021 before Employment Judge Reed. The claimant, Mrs J Rowland, appeared in person and the respondent was represented by counsel. The written record states that oral reasons were given at the hearing and no written reasons would be provided unless requested within 14 days.
The tribunal's decision was that Somerset NHS Foundation Trust did not unlawfully discriminate against Mrs J Rowland on the ground of disability. On that basis, the disability discrimination claim was dismissed and no monetary remedy was awarded in the written judgment record.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
