Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that the Claimant's employment transferred from the First Respondent to the Second Respondent on 31 May 2025 by operation of Regulation 3(1)(b)(ii) of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006. The hearing was before Employment Judge Woodhead sitting alone, and the judgment records that the Claimant represented herself, with separate representation for each respondent.
As a result of that transfer, and with the agreement of the parties, the complaints against the First Respondent were dismissed. Those dismissed complaints were unfair dismissal, direct discrimination on the grounds of race, direct discrimination on the grounds of disability, discrimination arising from disability, and wrongful dismissal. The judgment does not contain any findings on the merits of those claims.
The judgment states that the complaints against the Second Respondent proceed. No monetary award is recorded in this judgment.

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.
