Adeline Willis, who was made redundant in April 2020 eight months after a bowel cancer diagnosis, had been seeking aroundfor career-long losses, arguing she would have been promoted and her net earnings would have risen to 200,000 pounds, excluding pension and benefits. Cancer is listed as a disability under the UK Equality Act 2010, protecting sufferers from discrimination.
NatWest was ordered to pay almost 87,700 pounds, including 35,000 pounds for injury to feelings and aggravated damages for Willis's losses until December 1, 2020.
