A man with a facial disfigurement says he was asked to leave a restaurant in south London because staff said he was “scaring the customers”.
Oliver Bromley has Neurofibromatosis Type 1, a genetic condition that causes non-cancerous tumours to grow on his nerves.
Speaking to the BBC, he said when he had gone to place an order at a restaurant in Camberwell, staff told him there had been complaints about him.
“It’s a horrible thing to happen. I took it very personally on the day,” he said.
He can sue for compensation under the Equality Act 2010.
As I understand it. From a lawyer.
Yep but you first have to win a disceimination case. Without thT they just deny the event.
Likely he would given the claimed comment. But without witnesses it can be hard to win.
