Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal heard the case at London Central on 26, 27 and 30 September 2019 before Employment Judge Adkin, with Mrs G P Bradfield and Ms L Moreton as the lay members. Mr L Ellington represented himself and the respondent was represented by Mr P Powlesland.
The tribunal held that Fitness First Clubs Limited did not discriminate against the claimant because of race contrary to section 13 of the Equality Act 2010, and did not discriminate against him because of sex contrary to section 13 of the Equality Act 2010. Both claims were dismissed. The written record states that the reasons for the decision had been given orally at the hearing.

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.
