news.sky.com/story/natasha-abrahart-high-court-rejects-university-of-bristol-appeal-over-students-death-13071531
Quick Glance: Natasha Abrahart: High Court dismisses University appeal
- The High Court rejected the appeal of the University of Bristol, which had been ruled to have played a role in the death of a disabled student who took her own life.
- Natasha Abrahart, a physics student who had severe social anxiety, passed away in April 2018 on the day she was scheduled to present to students in a 329-seat lecture hall.
- In May 2022, Ms. Abrahart's parents successfully brought a lawsuit against the university, as the Bristol County Court concluded that it had contributed to her demise by discriminating against her based on her disability.
- The university was found to have violated its responsibilities under the Equalities Act by failing to make necessary adjustments to the evaluation process for Natasha, resulting in a mandate to pay over £50,000 in compensatory and funeral expenses.
