The A to Z of Housing Discrimination Case Law: Thiam v Richmond Housing Partnership

The A to Z of Housing Discrimination Case Law: Thiam v Richmond Housing Partnership

From Akerman-Livingstone to Z v Hackney, learn about the cases and the principles which have shaped Housing Discrimination since the Equality Act 2010 came into force.  In each of our podcasts, we will discuss one case: its facts, its context, and what principles it decided.

In this sixth podcast, Iris Ferber KC and Karolina Zielinska discuss Thiam v Richmond Housing Partnership, a High Court appeal from 2025: a case which explains how section 15 of the Equality Act 2010 – “discrimination arising from disability” – can operate as a defence to a possession claim.

As part of our ongoing journey to ensure our website and marketing initiatives are as accessible as possible, all our podcasts will be available in a transcription format - The A to Z of Housing Discrimination Case Law - Thiam v Richmond Housing Partnership transcript. ​

Also available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

If you would like our members to cover any other topics, please do not hesitate to contact us.
