The SunHero Broadmoor nurse who helped expose sick Jimmy Savile faces being BOOTED from NHS home in £35k feudKeith Palmer, a 72-year-old former Broadmoor Hospital nurse and whistleblower who helped expose Jimmy Savile's abuse at the notorious psychiatric facility, is facing eviction from his NHS home through a £35,000 court battle over alleged rent arrears and unpaid utility bills. The West London National Health Service Trust is seeking possession of the Eastern Lane cottage he has occupied for nearly 40 years, with the dispute centering on whether his tenancy is protected under the 1977 Rent Act. The NHS claims rent increases from £750 to £950 per month in 2021 were lawful, while Palmer argues they were unlawfully implemented and that evicting him would violate his right to family life under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights.Footyaddicts8 a side football Paddington Recreation Ground, LondonThe West London NHS Trust is operating a 'Football for Wellbeing Hub' at Paddington Recreation Ground in London, utilizing 8-a-side football as a therapeutic tool to support mental health recovery.

The tribunal found the comments, made between June and September 2023 in office, corridor, and handover settings, created an offensive environment and ordered the Trust to pay £1,425 in damages for injury to feelings. The judge acknowledged the term can be a sign of respect in Ghanaian culture but concluded it was used offensively in this context.The Indian ExpressHow an NHS worker won harassment payout of £1,425 after a colleague repeatedly called her ‘auntie’A UK employment tribunal ordered West London NHS Trust to pay £1,425 in compensation to healthcare worker Ilda Esteves after finding that a colleague repeatedly calling her 'auntie' constituted workplace harassment on grounds of age and sex. The tribunal rejected the team leader's defense that the term carries honour in Ghanaian culture, ruling that the repeated use despite requests to stop crossed into harassment. Esteves had filed five claims including victimisation and unlawful deduction of wages, but only the harassment claim was upheld.The Times of IndiaIndian-origin worker wins harassment case over ‘auntie’ remark in UKA UK employment tribunal has ruled that repeatedly calling a colleague "auntie" at work constituted unlawful harassment linked to age and sex, ordering West London NHS Trust to pay £1,425 in damages to Ilda Esteves, a 64-year-old healthcare assistant of Indian origin. The tribunal found that despite the cultural context of the term as a sign of respect in Ghanaian culture, the repeated use against her wishes created an offensive work environment. While upholding the harassment claim, the tribunal dismissed Esteves' other allegations and denied her request for anonymity.The Times of India'Auntie' hits a nerve, PIO wins harassment suitWest London NHS Trust has been ordered to pay £1,425 in damages to Indian-origin healthcare assistant Ilda Esteves after Watford Employment Tribunal found that a nurse colleague repeatedly calling her "auntie" constituted harassment on the grounds of age and sex.
