US EditionTrans Row Nurse Raises Fresh Legal Action Against Health Board and Senior Staff
Sandie Peggie alleges harassment and victimisation by NHS Fife senior managers over disciplinary actions and a controversial media statement, citing the Equality Act 2010.
- On August 6, 2025, nurse Sandie Peggie initiated additional legal action in the employment tribunal against NHS Fife and three of its senior staff members.
- The claim stems from senior staff opposing a March 2024 decision to lift Ms Peggie’s suspension after she confronted trans Dr Beth Upton over female changing room use.
- The legal complaint involves allegations of mistreatment and unfair targeting linked to Ms Peggie's gender-critical views, distinct from her ongoing employment tribunal case against Dr Upton and NHS Fife.
- Ms Peggie's solicitor, Margaret Gribbon, stated all four respondents' legal defences are due shortly and noted the health board has not disclosed who authorised a controversial July 18, 2025, media statement.
- The tribunal panel is scheduled to deliberate over a four-day period starting October 14, with a ruling anticipated no sooner than November, while additional harassment claims may be brought against NHS Fife and certain individuals.
