Police worker with ADHD wins £19,000 payout after suing force for disability discrimination because they didn't give her noise-cancelling headphones - even though she had pair at home

Despite her request, Ms Vale already had a pair at home but had not informed her new boss about them.
Upon beginning work at the police force, Ms Vale requested that she be supplied with noise cancelling headphones and informed them of her ADHD.
She requested noise cancelling headphones again after a four-week probation review in October.
'Providing (Ms Vale) with noise cancelling headphones was a reasonable adjustment which the (police force) failed to do.'
Ms Vale also won a claim of disability harassment because Miss Clarke questioned her ADHD diagnosis.
