Ms Peggie took action against NHS Fife after sharing a changing-room with transgender medic Dr Beth Upton at Kirkcaldy’s Victoria Hospital in December 2023. On Monday, Ms Peggie’s legal team announced an appeal against the findings will be allowed to move forward, with a hearing likely to take place early in the new year. “On July 31, 2026, the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) confirmed that Sandie Peggie’s appeal against the judgment of the employment tribunal dated December 8, 2025 should now proceed to a full appeal hearing. Claims against Dr Upton – who no longer works at NHS Fife – were dismissed. NHS Fife has been contacted for comment.
