POLICY CHANGED: County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust has finally changed its staff changing-room policy after a three-year legal battle with the Darlington nurses in which female nurses were harassed and discriminated against for wanting a single-sex place to undress at work.
The Trust’s revised Uniform and Dress Code Policy now states:
“In accordance with UK Supreme Court ruling (2025), staff must use changing spaces according to their biological sex. Alternative unisex changing spaces are provided for staff who choose not to use an alternative facility.”
The change brings the Trust’s written policy into line with the law and the judgment secured by seven nurses at Darlington Memorial Hospital.

BREAKING: Following a three-year legal battle, County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust has now finally changed its policy to reflect the law on single-sex spaces for its staff.
The Christian Legal Centre has supported the nurses from the beginning for their ordeal.
Andrea Williams, chief executive of the Christian Legal Centre, which has supported the nurses, said:
“The Trust’s new policy is a complete vindication of the Darlington nurses and everything they have fought for.
“In one clear sentence, the Trust has now accepted the position that Bethany and her colleagues maintained from the beginning: single-sex changing rooms are based on biological sex, and suitable alternatives should be provided for anyone who does not wish to use them.
“Yet this elementary and lawful solution came only after years of institutional intransigence. The Trust ignored the women, disregarded internal warnings, pursued them through hostile processes and spent vast sums of public money defending a policy that exposed female staff to discrimination and harassment.
“The nurses were portrayed as the problem when the real problem was a policy that erased their rights. Their courage has now forced one of the country’s largest NHS trusts to recognise biological reality and protect single-sex spaces in practice.
“There must now be accountability for how this was allowed to happen, for the public money spent, and for the severe personal and professional harm inflicted on dedicated nurses who were telling the truth. Every NHS trust should read this policy change and act immediately. Women should not have to litigate hospital by hospital to secure rights already guaranteed by law.”

The trans subreddit is wondering whether single-sex spaces are conversion therapy.
It's hard to blame them, given how absurd the government's draft conversion practices bill is.
When will Labour realise that this is a dangerous waste of time?
Read @A_Minichiello on how and why a 'conversion practices' ban would be weaponised against all kinds of reasonable people.

"The definition is put in such arcane and vague language that it could apply to all sorts of things.
"Pray for someone to be faithful to their wife? Conversion therapy.
"Tell someone to stop watching porn? Conversion therapy.
"Say to your 14-year-old daughter that she isn’t really a non-binary transmasc genderqueer demiboy? Believe it or not, conversion therapy."

Today, could you make a gift of £15, £30, £60 or whatever you can afford to ensure that Bread of Life Church - and every church in the UK - remains free to preach the gospel in public, all so that more people will hear and respond to the gospel?

4 years ago today: The Metropolitan Police apologises and admits it ‘fell below standards’ following two wrongful arrests of female Christian evangelist Hatun Tash while being abused by an Islamic crowd for critiquing Islam at Speakers’ Corner, London.
Supported by the Christian Legal Centre, Hatun Tash, a well-known Christian evangelist who has critiqued and debated the Qur’an and Islam at Speakers’ Corner, also received £10,000 in compensation and costs after challenging the arrests.

It has taken Labour far too long to ensure the law about single sex spaces is implemented in the NHS.
Not only is it the law, it’s common sense. NHS Trusts now need to protect women without any further delay.
@KemiBadenoch has been clear on the need for safe, single sex spaces in the NHS for years. Here is Kemi making her position clear in March 2022.
Under Kemi’s leadership, the @Conservatives will always stand up for the right of women and girls to feel safe.
