    In Conversation with The Darlington Nurses

    Send us Fan Mail Heather Binning is joined by two of the Darlington Nurses - lead claimant Bethany Hutchison and Lisa Lockey. In 2023, eight nurses from the Day Surgery Unit at Darlington Memorial Hospital filed a discrimination claim against County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust for for sexual harassment and sex discrimination. Female staff were forced to share their female changing room with Rose Henderson, a male member of staff.  Henderson was described by the tribunal as "a biological male who identifies as female and has the protected characteristic of gender reassignment". The Employment Tribunal ruled that the NHS unlawfully discriminated against and harassed the nurses by requiring them to share female-only changing rooms with a male member of staff, and confirmed that the Trust's policy allowing men into women's spaces was unlawful and violated the rights of female staff. Bethany and Lisa speak candidly about what drove them to take action and the underhand tactics deployed by management before and during the tribunal. Hear first-hand accounts of the highs and lows of their legal battle and how some colleagues, through fear or pressure, have distanced themselves from the women. Bethany also discusses the newly formed Darlington Nursing Union, founded to help other medical professionals fight unlawful treatment. --- Useful Links: Twitter: @DarlingtonUnion Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Darlington-Nursing-Union-61566543745560/ Email:  info@darlingtonnursingunion.uk Christian Legal Centre: https://christianconcern.com/about/services/christian-legal-centre/ Tribunal Transcript: https://tribunaltweets.substack.com/p/eight-nurses-v-county-durham-and --- If you would like to apply to JOIN the Women’s Rights Network, please visit https://www.womensrights.network/join-wrn If you enjoyed listening to this podcast and would like to hear more, go to womensrights.network/wrn-podcast to listen, download and subscribe to more of our episodes.   You can also find more news, articles and videos on our substack at https://womensrightsnetwork.substack.com And if you’d like to join our live conversations, go to womensrights.network/join-wrn

    In Conversation with Fiona McAnena

    Send us Fan Mail Heather Binning is joined by Fiona McAnena - a woman who has spent years at the sharp end of the fight to restore and protect women's rights. After five years as Sports Campaigning Lead at Fair Play For Women, Fiona joined Sex Matters in 2024 as Director of Campaigns. In this conversation, she reflects on the pivotal moments that sparked significant surges in the movement, the long battle to hold mainstream media to account, and why grassroots activism remains the most powerful force of all. A former Cambridge Blue, Fiona still rows and is a committed parkrunner. Also joining us briefly is Maya Forstater, who offers a timely reminder of just how much weight a well-timed response to a public consultation can carry. --- Useful Links: Sex Matters:       https://sex-matters.org/ @SexMattersOrg  Fair Play For Women:  https://fairplayforwomen.com/ @fairplaywomen Audible:   https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/Terf-Island-How-the-UK-Resisted-Trans-Ideology-Audiobook/B0GMKFLK2R --- If you’d like to become a member of the Women’s Rights Network, click on the Join button here: https://www.womensrights.network/join-wrn If you enjoyed listening to this podcast and would like to hear more, go to womensrights.network/wrn-podcast to listen, download and subscribe to more of our episodes.   You can also find more news, articles and videos on our substack at https://womensrightsnetwork.substack.com And if you’d like to join our live conversations, go to womensrights.network/join-wrn
