This is my record of the Institutional Discrimination in reverse Chronological Order that ruined my career and destroying 32 years of my life in the UK. I am preparing this to help me with getting support sharing my STORY.
Resulting from DISCRIMINATION I applied for Reasonable Adjustment from CCMCC PO Box 527, Salford, M5 OBY Telephone: 0300 123 1372 Email: and Web: …
Ref: G08YJ214
I was treated unfairly from the outset and I believe this was due to the fact the ET/EAT claim I made up my DISABILITIES in URL making me a victim with the second miscarriage of justice. Now I am gagged and facing imprisonment and eviction after twenty-three (23) years of hate crimes at the home I was given by Housing for Women that rescued me from domestic violence and homelessness in 2000. Four (4) years after writing this and on the 1st of August 2024 when it is EMANCIPATION DAY in Jamaica. I am dealing with the fact I was labelled a violent nuisance a year ago despite the proof online about the systemic discrimination denying me my ENTITLEMENTS. Let me make it clear that those involved in the systemic discrimination will be named and shamed.
The Case of Barrister Ryan Clement the Groomer of Winsome Duncan – Updated
Despite the failures in collecting the money from the judgement four (4) years later, I am hounded by the Court Enforcement Services LTD about payment. This contributed to the breaches of the Equality Act 2010 Protected Characteristics impacting on my mental and physical well-being.
All I will say Without Prejudice that failure to respond to my email is confirmation that Ms Porter who I spoke to on 27 March 2020 is working in partnership with Ryan Clement whom she describes as a Career Criminal to continue the DISCRIMINATION. Nothing was done until I called up and having to repeat. It is obvious that my VULNERABILITIES are used against me.
My email 31 March 2020 was sent to three (3) Recipients dealing with the Judgement re Barrister Ryan Clement. To date I have not heard from any of them. I am assuming they have decided to forget that JUDGEMENT was Ordered and am to get my MONEY. My husband is dead and am yet to receive the money. Yet those involved are party to the current impasse of threats of IMPRISONMENT and EVICTION on behalf of Housing for Women and Devonshires Solicitors LLP and the neighbour from HELL Deborah Agnes Gilchrist.

Without Prejudice I must spend money to go online to find Barrister Clement have 15 Companies registered at his address after I was given the RUN AROUND to trigger my TRAUMAS into PTSD by the CCMCC. Since the Judgement was passed, if as Bianca Porter says, she cannot find Mr Clement at the address. And construction is going on. Isn’t it the responsibility of the Registry Trust Limited and Court Enforcement Services to recover my MONEY? Therefore, I will have to conclude that all parties are involved in the DISCRIMINATION.

They continued the DISCRIMINATION issuing THREATS. The fact that all my CLAIMS have been sent to CLCC is in breach of my Human Rights and no different from The POLICE charged with GEORGE FLOYD death. Because this is a Test Case and Barrister Samantha Jones is advocating on behalf of John Fenton a con man, she got to represent LEYF as a lawyer. And the evidence is provided that they are acting illegally. Of interest is the roles of BWB and 7BR before Barrister Jones move to present CHAMBERS.
Role of Bar Standards Board
The BSB is implicated because they failed to get back about my COMPLAINTS against Ms Jones. She is saying the complaints were strike out in her DEFENCE. Mr Michael Carter contacted me via email 15 November 2019 apologising. Am still waiting for any other response from BSB.

The County Court at Clerkenwell & Shoreditch
Here is a sample letter 18 December 2020 Complaint Reference: 2222367. I have been HUNG OUT TO DRY over the past 6 years and this is just how the CCMCC continue prolonging the AGONY. Hoping I will give up or commit SUICIDE HCT Group Impact Report 2016 Statistic 1 in 5 of all suicides associated with unemployment. Hence the reason all my CLAIMS sent to CLCC for Designated Civil Judge to impose RESTRAINT ORDER in breach of the Equality Act 2010 and Human Rights Act. MM Updates: All the district judges listed and others involved with the unlawful injunction with threats of IMPRISONMENT and EVICTION on behalf of Housing for Women will be named and entered in the “Rogue’s Gallery” of Mervelee Myers.
The Rev Rose Hudson-Wilkin who I meet at the Housing for Women AGM in April 2014 will be in the frame for refusing to mediate on my behalf.
10 December 2019 making it plain that the CCMCC join the Judiciary Of England & Wales continuing DISCRIMINATION.
District Judge Bell transferred 7 of my CLAIMS to Central London County Court. This was highlighted when Barrister Samantha Jones Solicitors contacted me threatening that Designated Civil Judge would impose RESTRAINT ORDER.
MM Update: District Judge Bell is involved in the threats and will be named on my “Rogue’s Gallery” of HMCTS criminals needing Emotional Regulation Treatment and are Violent Nuisances.
This is what I wrote: Proof CCMCC involved with the Judiciary of England & Wales in Institutional Discrimination. All CLAIMS sent to CLCC. Even that of Ryan Clement for which JUDGEMENT was ordered. They are using Policy & Procedures to trap VULNERABLE people. Is it any wonder the CCMCC and Enforcement Services involved in letting Ryan Clement getting away with SCAMMING?

‘Repairing Trust’ Call for Evidence
The Housing Ombudsman is exploring common issues in housing maintenance, following a significant rise in complaints about disrepair. This ‘Call to Evidence’ will help us to understand how increasing repairs costs, complaints and skill shortages are impacting residents’ safety in their homes.
The ‘Repairing Trust’ report will highlight some of the positive changes landlords have made to rise to the maintenance challenge and explore the complex relationships between landlords, contractors, and residents, with a particular focus on accountability, roles, and responsibilities. It will examine the experiences of operatives on the ground as well as residents and the breakdown in relationships that can happen between the landlord and residents.
The ‘Call for Evidence’ will remain open for over 12 weeks, closing on Friday 25 October 2024, supported by casework reviews and fieldwork across England.
We are seeking insights from residents, repair operatives, landlords, contractors, MPs, and councillors.
The questions in each survey will cover:
What are the main issues landlords face when contracting services, what causes these issues, and what impact do they have?
What problems do residents encounter with these services, the underlying reasons, and their effects?
What barriers do operatives experience in delivering services, the root causes, and the repercussions?
What are the lessons learned from cases with no maladministration and successful initiatives within the sector?
For more information about the ‘Repairing Trust’ Call to Evidence click here (External link)
Please choose to complete one of the following surveys. Thank you for taking part.
This survey is aimed MPs and Councillors who have had social housing casework involving issues with contractors and repairs. This will inform our next Spotlight report, titled ‘Repairing Trust’, which will explore common issues in housing maintenance.

Not Fit For Purpose
The Housing Ombudsman Service is Not Fit For Purpose. Richard Harty and his “CRIMINALS needing Emotional Regulation Treatment and Violent Nuisances” think putting me on the “Customer Panel” will gag me like what HMCTS has done to me. But Housing for Women and Devonshires Solicitors LLP seems not to realise my many attributes and PASSIONS.
Richard Blakeway will head the “Rogue’s Gallery” list from the Housing Departments.
29 November 2019 that makes clear of the confusion. See attached letter to understand my dilemma and why I cannot understand how my Claim got to Telephone Mediation and STRUCK OUT.

MM Updates: A year ago today on EMANCIPATION Day 2023 District Judge Sterlini labelled me a “VIOLENT NUISANCE” I, will therefore, let the world know about the role of HMCTS in the miscarriages of justice.

Mrs Mervelee Myers v Ms Winsome Duncan
I need explanation for the above District Judges DISCRIMINATION.
As a result of the continuing DISCRIMINATION by CCMCC I issued a CLAIM
Claim Number: F21YM001
Claimant: Mrs Mervelee Myers
Defendant: County Court at Clerkenwell & Shoreditch.
Date: 22 October 2019
All that happened was it was STRUCK out like all the others. I could not be bothered as I know the CCMCC was colluding to BREAK my RESOLVE.
The Judges were intent on FRUSTRATING me that they strike out my Claim against VOICE the UNION after I was contacted by two Solicitor’s Firms after putting in a DEFENCE. Ms Winsome Duncan was in the Gambia on another of her scamming mission and did not accept the ORDERS. I’d seen her via YouTube.
Ms Duncan since set up TV Channel on Facebook, so I commented. This prompted her to call me when I was doing YouTube Live. So, whatever I said was captured if her voice was not captured.
The POLICE Involvement
I reported Ms Duncan to the Metropolitan Police after she verbally abused me out by TEXCO on 16 October 2019. But they refuse to act, because I have CLAIMS against them and the IOPC too.

Many Ways to Hang Dog Without Put Rope Around Neck
DEDICATION
This book is dedicated to my mother; she was a strong woman, who took on many roles when she faced challenges.
To my aunt Marty Nembhard aka Evelyn Bailey who told me the history of my Nembhard family when I visited her in St. Ann.
To my aunt Tilyn Nembhard aka Icylyn Powell one of three children born to my grandmother Irene Mills-Nembhard and only sibling of my father who is alive. Auntie Tilyn must be recognised for her contributions to Jamaica’s Cultural Capitals and Independence whilst she is still alive. I will take the accolades for creating the legacies freeing the future generations of my families from the “Mental Slavery of Traumas” inflicted on us. Especially the females who bore their suffering in silence. The “Generational Curses of my Dysfunctional Family” must be addressed sensitively so my granddaughter does not suffer the same faith as the females have down the ages. From my ancestors were sold into slavery and experienced “Multiple Discrimination”.
To Mervelee Ratty Nembhard-Myers-Tomlinson for challenging the systemic discrimination that made me a criminal needing Emotional Regulation Treatment to cover for abusers. A Violent Nuisance during the time I was experiencing CRISIS of losing a brother to cancer, another spending his sixty (60) birthdays in the hospital “Intensive Care” and me having to call out the
Ambulance Service. At the same time caring for my elderly husband. As Camilla Tominey the former Daily Express columnist states, “Tech Don’t Lie” and the fact I am a writer is key to my survival.
My intellectual property, copyright, images and CPPDP harvested by social media will not stop me from sharing my stories. The Judiciary of England and Wales, the Criminal Justice System and Crown Prosecution Service will be named and shamed for putting children, young people and elderly adults at risk of safeguarding. Will they continue covering for the A-Z of abusers by imprisoning and evicting me from the home I got because of “Domestic Abuse”?
ACKNOWEDGEMENTS
I contributed to the Daily Express Mental Health Crusade.
I would like to acknowledge my tutors at Lambeth college, who first planted the seeds of writing a book, they told me my assignments could be used for my first book, when I attended 1997-1999. My first book was published in 2022, but I published on my own website “My Vision” created from scratch. I was a social media INFLUENCER until I was made “Public Enemy” number one with “My Fight4justice” campaign started on Facebook and taken to Google My Business.
Danielle Williams, you gave me the confidence to know and believe that I have the knowledge and experience. When you told me that I can teach your class, I was moved beyond words and humbled.
A special thanks to my husband for his support and understanding. Without him this book would not be possible. Age one-hundred years and one month (101), my husband stood the test of time. However, no one deserves to be traumatised for supporting his wife. He died in Kings College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust on BYRON ward, where a male nurse by the name of John was the only person to take care of him.
To Mr. Tony Cealy whose Theatre of the Oppressed helped me to get from the background and be not afraid to face my fears of failure. Because of my “Chronic Anxiety” and “Hidden Disabilities” keeping me in the background.
Brixton Library Zine prepared me for moving forward with my Fight4justice campaign as a writer and photographer who is passionate about advocating on behalf of others.
Meeting Andrew Beckford and starting a conversation at “The Black Perspective” at Elim House Peckham.
To all those who continue to provide the support network to enable my empowerment with my Fight4justice campaign, I am eternally grateful…
PREFACE
This is the story of Mervelee Myers’ transitional journey which started after the birth of my youngest sibling Ervin Julius Emster Nembhard on the 11th of November 1966. My stories of experiencing “Multiple Discrimination” are documented online therefore, I must sign post the reader to read how I am managing to survive after the death of my mother, who experienced dementia. Mum meets her challenges throughout her life, as a loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, auntie, and friend. In the latter stages, she was struck down by dementia and despite me making the diagnoses from the United Kingdom after hearing about her behaviours which were causing concerns to the family. I was not prepared when I got home for my son’s wedding, to find mama as the vulnerable woman who relied upon others for meeting her every needs. However, most painful of all was the fact that mama did not know her only daughter.
I was comforted by the fact that I had the opportunities to help my mother to revisit her life when she was the strong woman. Taking care of the need of others at the expense of her own emotional wellbeing. A glimmer of recognition came the day I was leaving Jamaica, when she told my son, ‘She did not come to say goodbye’. It was then I realised this was our final physical goodbye and the next time I saw my mother would be in death.
My name is Mervelee Myers, this is my story. I want to tell the world how the transitional journey that I have been on the past ten (10) years was predicted by a stranger whom I meet at my aunt Phyllis Salmon aka Mellie Nembhard home in January 2014. This man of God was visiting my auntie and prayed for me. I want to use my story as a testimony for others not to accept giving up as an option.
So much has happened to me in the past ten years including the deterioration in my mental and physical impairments. I refused to be gag when my stories are documented online. Those responsible will be named and shamed as my mother always say, “Prison was not made for animals, but for humankind”. When am finished, the criminals needing Emotional Regulation Treatment and violent nuisances will be named.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Dog a Sweat and Long Hair Cover It.
I was Mervelee’s tutor when she registered for the Edexcel Level 2 Certificate in
Supporting Teaching and Learning in Schools (QCF), as a Teaching Assistant. The
LSA course lasted five months, from January – May 2016. When I first met Mervelee, she was a bit reserved and told me she is more of a background person. However, I could identify Mervelee as a more knowledgeable practitioner from the beginning, by the way she engaged, socialized, and interacted with her peers. Mervelee’s peers could also identify her for being cooperative, reliable, and dependable professional, who supported and was willing to share her knowledge as a learning partner.
Mervelee was appointed by her group to lead the presentation for the first group project. It was evident that Mervelee is a natural leader and influencer, who is willing to spend time supporting her peers to reach their individual potential. I encourage Mervelee to continue using and sharing her knowledge to empower others. Mervelee was open and honest with me about her Mental Health Issues and informed me she was undergoing counselling. Mervelee said she did not want any misunderstandings, as some days are very bad. She was determined to get back to good health and into working.
Mervelee established positive relationships with her peers, encouraging them to do their best. Her sense of humour was appreciated, especially as she was the Mother Figure for the group. Mervelee talked about managing her disabilities with diet and exercise, without relying too much on medication and was an inspiration to all. Her work was above the required standards, and she took great pride in the presentation of her assignments.
Mervelee expressed her wish to do further studies and was planning to enrol on the Higher-Level Studies program to gain her Teaching
Qualification/Assessor Award. Mervelee has done volunteering, and I know she is ready to be back working. The acceptance by her peers enabled Mervelee to regain some of the self-confidence she lost over the time she experienced her personal crisis. We are continuing the collaborative working partnerships developed using our shared visions and knowledge to promote inclusion, empowering others to reach their potential. Mervelee is growing from strength to strength and regaining her confidence.
Mervelee confided that she finds it difficult going back into a toxic environment, where she will be judged by others and feel threatened. The unfair treatments have left Mervelee feeling vulnerable. Mervelee said her vulnerability caused her to question her abilities and function as a more knowledgeable reflective practitioner who developed the listening ethos. Mervelee said she was advised about the benefits from a career change. She decided to return to studying to gain the necessary qualifications to get back into employment.
Although her confidence was destroyed after the years, she spent managing her hidden disabilities to become a graduate at 50-years-old, she wants to get back working. Work keeps her going and gives her a sense of self-worth. As a Counsellor, I have been supportive of Mervelee’s endeavours and determination to get back into working, even if not full-time. Mervelee’s peers were supportive of her, and those with whom she volunteered were grateful for her help. They have given their blessings to Mervelee’s future endeavours. I believe Mervelee Myers can manage an Early Years Setting, with her qualifications, training, experiences, and passion she has shown for her subject area, whilst doing the Teaching Assistant course. Mervelee continues to empower herself to
the highest levels-with her ongoing Continuing Personal Professional Development Plan (CPPDP).
I can vouch for Mervelee Myers as a professional, who is passionate about accomplishing and achieving whatever she sets out to do. Since meeting Mervelee, she has shown her professionalism, to be cooperative. She uses her initiative to empower those she works with in whatever capacity. I would highly recommend Mervelee Myers.

Extract from my first BOOK
I am using the above extract from my first Book IN HONOUR OF STRONG
WOMEN EVERYWHERE that was signed by Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley at the launch of “A New Met for London” so the world is aware of the “Systemic Discrimination” I experienced since the death of my mother with dementia. Then the world can begin to understand why I must continue
my “Fight4justice Campaign” in honour of my husband age (101) one hundred and one years and one month old.

Doing the research
Personal Perspective:
I was empowered to do research into Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) from a personal perspective as part of studies to become a graduate. The following chapters of my book will reveal sensitive details that can be found in the public domain owing to the nature of the jobs I have signed contracts for. Due to the personal circumstances of how I came to deal with the SEND Code of Conduct, I realised that there were other factors which were having an impact upon my transitional developments since puberty. In Honour of Strong Women Everywhere will go a long way in highlighting some of the myths and old wives’ tales, associated with SEND. One of my mantras about Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), is that in some rare cases it cannot be seen with the naked eyes. Many people who have experienced SEND issues will discover that there is evidence that if there is no “Early Intervention Strategies” starting in childhood. Children can face additional traumas from their disabilities if left untreated. Although my “Childhood Traumas – Hidden Disabilities” were not addressed by professionals, I found my own “Early Intervention Strategies” in writing from an early age.
It took me enhancing knowledge via studies, my working and personal experiences and even being a participant in “The Experiences of Multiple Discrimination” (Maria Hudson 2012) for me to share my contributions which is/was a part of my research into “A Voice of a Child”. A project I conducted for LEYF CEO June O’Sullivan in 2010. Coming after Dr. Maria Hudson’s research paper when I was interviewed at my home. It took the unfair treatments at work and advised to seek counselling by Dr. Laura Crawford when I was sent on medical suspension in breach of the contract I signed. For me to find out how much one’s life can be affected by SEND Issues. Therefore, I would advise everyone to educate themselves about the issues that may impact upon how one is able to live a fulfilling life.
I grew up in rural Jamaica with a family that was affected by disabilities, prolonged sicknesses and suffering as well as poverty. Without knowing what was happening to me, my father was struck down with Parkinson’s disease from an early age. I was going through the transitional developmental stages from puberty onwards and my life was turned upside down as a result. I ended up becoming one confused little girl who could not understand that my father’s so-called God, could allow him to be sick and leave his family to suffer. I was the one, who was severely affected. Due to the trauma, I took on the signs and symptoms of my father’s sickness and was unable to perform in the public. I bore the brunt of being labelled as worthless and struggled through school. But if you ask my schoolmates and my teachers, they will tell you that I was bright and I have the certificates to prove it! Knowing my deficits and limitations, I stay out of situations that would trigger the severe symptoms.
I considered myself different from others. That’s why I am an advocate of INCLUSION, implementing and promoting of the Early Intervention Strategies.
In my roles as the EYFS coordinator, SENCO, and Multigenerational Working Approach Facilitator. Please do not wait for the horse to escape from the paddock, before trying to mend the fences or locking the gate, if you do you will miss your blessings. The evidence is conclusive that SEND conditions which are present from childhood if not dealt with in line with the SEND Code of Conduct can blight the lives of individuals into adulthood. I am proof that it happens, Google is where my experiences and life stories are documented. However, I must make it clear that I am/was the victim of “Systemic Institutional Discrimination” that triggered my Post Traumatic Stress Disorder after I experienced bereavement and losses. My wishes are for my readers to benefit and to be inspired.
I was diagnosed with “Chronic Anxiety” on Monday 18th July 2006, for my Health and Social Care examination with the (Open University 2004-2010). Because I did not have a medical diagnosis for Parkinson’s disease. To date, I was only able to get treatment after the Occupational Health Doctor pass me fit for work when concerns were raised about alleged behaviours that were not deemed normal. The doctor advised me to get counselling to find out why I react the way I do to certain situations. I have since had counselling from the professionals at the Maudsley Hospital. Although I am not cured, I am in control of my life once more and I am nearly back to before the time when my father took sick.
I assessed Mervelee Myers for the purpose of this report in my consulting rooms at Keats House on 15 April 2024. I explained to her that as it is a court report, the usual patient/doctor confidentiality accorded does not apply in this case and she understood this.

She started work as a basic schoolteacher at 27 years, before this, she did one-year national youth service, as a teaching assistant, and worked as a basic schoolteacher when she finally came to the UK in 1992.
The chronology became a bit confusing from here on. She told me that she met someone in Jamaica, came to the UK in 1991 on a holiday, to find out if she could live in the UK. She went back in June 1991; she finally came to live in the UK in 1992.
According to her, when she came on holiday in 1991, she did cleaning jobs, when she returned in 1992, she went back to the same cleaning jobs, and was in various cleaning employment from 1992 until 2005.

She told me that she has never smoked cigarettes, she drinks alcohol on social occasions and denied use of non-prescribed or illicit drugs.
2.3 Forensic history
I have not seen a record of previous convictions recorded against her, but she reported the following to me, not in a good chronological order.
She said that on 30 November 2020, the police attended her home, “Beat me up, assaulted me, took me out half naked”. According to her, the police called the evening before to tell her she was required at the Walworth police station, for an interview on 1 December 2020. She said that she had a prior appointment that day, to do with her diabetes. She requested for another appointment. She told me that four officers visited, she thought they were there to listen to her argument.
She said that she was charged with criminal damage to property. She was fined £50.
She said that in January 2023, she was at home, it was her mother’s birthday, so she dressed up in her cultural clothes and was celebrating. She wanted to put all that had happened to her, behind her and move on, the police attended her home. She said that they made allegations that there was a report of an incident at her address on 10 January 2023. She refuted this, she could not recall this happening. She said that one of the officers, went out and came back, and changed the reason why they were there. In the interim, she was issued papers telling her to attend Croydon Magistrates Court, if she did not attend, she would be arrested. She was given a date to attend Walworth police station for an interview. The next day, 27 January 2023, she went to Croydon Magistrates Court with her husband, nothing was listed. She asked questions, eventually, she spoke to somebody. She had to return to court twice after that. On the third visit to the court, no further action was taken, she was sent a document relating to her mental health.
On 3 February 2023, she said that she went to Walworth police station with her husband, she was represented by a duty solicitor, that was when she was told her neighbour returned from work at 1500 hours, heard screaming and shouting. The neighbour went to her flat, which is above hers (Mervelee Myers), opened her window, and she (Mervelee Myers) cursed her. She said that this is still being investigated to date.
According to her, both the neighbour and her male partner, have kicked her door, this started in November 2023, and is still going on. She told me that she called for assistance from the police the day the equipment was being installed at her home, for her husband to be discharged from hospital. The kicking of the door, she stated happened sometimes three times a week, she has reported to the police, and was provided card numbers.
On 27 February 2024, she told me that she called the police three times, because the kicking of the door was getting to her, no-one turned up. She was indoors, did not hear the communal doorbell ring, she then heard knocking on her door. She asked who it was, they said that it was the police. She opened the door; police officers were stood there. She thought because she had called three times, that is why they attended. She told me that some of the officers asked if she knew Arnold Tomlison, her husband, she invited them in. She stood there waiting for them to come in, she saw one of the officers, put something at the door. She asked what it was, it was a battering ram, no-one answered her. She thinks four officers went into her property, maybe more, she asked for the purpose of their visit. She told me that she suffers with anxiety, she became anxious when she saw the battering ram. She was then told that the visit was about a video she posted online. She told me that she posted a video online because she blogs, she has signed up for a speaking event on 28 April 2024. She stated that, “I am expert authority on subjects from cradle to grave. So, my tag line is early intervention is key to survival. Because I work with children”. She said that the video is there as part of her speaking engagements. The video was made in Jamaica, because her husband’s sister was going through a transition (dying), her husband’s niece, explained about her mother falling out of bed. She (Mervelee Myers) advised her niece that she has to safeguard her mother.
She then said that in terms of sensitivity, she did not post the video until after her sister-in-law died. She told me that the police saw the video, and because of their perception of her, she does not know who is feeding the police the information. She said one of the officers asked if she remembered him, he then told her that he remembered her husband, because he had visited, when her husband and herself had a disagreement. At this point, I asked if there was domestic violence between them, and she said no. She told me that she chose to report the incident, as a means of safeguarding both, because her husband was traumatised by the death of her mother. Her husband raised his walking stick to hit her. The police eventually left, but she reported the matter.
She then said that in 2017, she called the police because she was verbally abused by two persons, one of them stole her manuscript, the other one, a barrister, was ordered to pay back the money he took from her, by the Court, as he did not represent her. According to her, the police did not act, stating that, “It was none of their business”.
She told me that on 30 October 2017, the police and ambulance turned up at her house to section her for a malicious report, that she wrote on Facebook that she was feeling suicidal. She told me that she arranged a meeting with the police at the police station, she wanted her stepson to be present. He was not able to join the meeting, which took place with her alone. The police did not come prepared. One officer said to her, that if she did not calm down, she would be placed in a strait jacket. She told me that she came out of the meeting upset, her stepson arrived later, he was waiting outside. She said that the stepson went back into speak to the police. She said that whilst waiting outside, a police vehicle pulled up, stating they received a report that someone was misbehaving. According to her, nothing happened further with the police. She said that her stepson was still talking to them. Nothing else happened with the police on that day.
2.4 Medical history
She told me that in 2012, she was diagnosed with diabetes. She is not on medication at present. She tries a holistic approach. She said that takes metformin when advised to do so.
She said that she was diagnosed with arthritis in 2012 and she is receiving treatment.
She said that she was diagnosed with high blood pressure in 2023, she is not medication.
She said that in 2016, she did 12 sessions of counselling for depression and chronic anxiety.
She told me that she has not been on prescribed medication by secondary mental health services. She is not on any medication at present.
I obtained the following from the medical records provided to me.
Dr Laura Crawford, Occupational Health Physician, Health Management, in a letter dated 29 April 2015 to Ms Dilys Epton, HR, London Early Years Foundation thanked her for referring Ms Myers to Health Management for occupational health advice regarding her fitness to work and the impact of medical conditions on work. The letter summarised her physical condition. It is of note that the letter stated that she admitted that she had an anxious personality and is certainly likely that many of the symptoms she described are related to that. The letter stated that in terms of her anxiety, she was progressing some counselling therapy, having been given contact details both via her GP and via work. The letter stated that it is hoped that some counselling treatment might help her understand what triggers and symptoms, help her to manage them, and help her to moderate how she reacts when becoming anxious for example the loud speech and the tremor.
Laura Tinsley, Trainee Counselling Psychologist, South London & Maudsley
NHS Foundation Trust, Southwark Psychological Therapy Service, Middle
House, Maudsley Hospital, London SE5 8AZ in a letter to the GP, stated that Mrs Myers attended a course of 12 counselling sessions, and they had a final session on 26 February 2016. The PHQ-9 score on 10 April 2015 was 22 and the GAD was 7, the PHQ-9 score on 26 February 2016 was 5 and the GAD-7 score was 7. These are measures for anxiety and depression. The letter stated that Mrs Myers attended her sessions and engaged well throughout the course of treatment. The treatment focused on Mrs Myers depression, following her difficulties at work. Mrs Myers cause for depression and anxiety significantly reduced over the course of treatment as stated in the letter.
The plan and recommendations included an agreement that Mrs Myers did not require further treatment from SPTS at the time. However, Mrs Myers could always be rereferred or self-refer, if she required further treatment in the future.
The GP in a letter dated 17 March 2016 addressed to whom it may concern, stated that the letter was confirming that the above named attended the surgery on 6 February 2015. She said that she had been suffering for about one month with anxiety, poor sleep and low mood due to problems at work.
On examination, she was found to be slightly anxious. She was advised to use a self-certificate to sign herself off work for the first week and given the telephone number to ring for a local self-referral counselling service. She was reported to have attended the surgery again on 13 March 2015, saying that she had problems with stress at work. She had counselling at Southwark Psychological Therapy Service where she had 12 counselling sessions with a final session being on 26 February 2016.

It was reported in a letter dated 8 July 2016 from South London & Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust Talking Therapies, Southwark, to Ms Myers, addressed to whom it may concern, that she attended 12 counselling sessions at Talking Therapies Southwark. It was reported that she stated that she has suffered with chronic anxiety since she was a child. She said that she had learnt to manage the anxiety, but it did sometimes affect her ability to write as she has a tremor in her hand. She, however, stated that this did not affect her work.
She reported that her depression seemed to have arisen in the context of a difficult period at work. She said that she felt unfairly treated and she could not understand how her colleagues had come to form their opinions about her.
The letter stated that over the course of treatment, the impact of her work situation was explored with her, and how it affected her. The impact of this situation on her marriage, where Mrs Myers found it hard to cope as a result of being overwhelmed by the difficulties in her work life. She also said that this had affected some of her friendships. It was reported that Mrs Myers said that her family were her main support, but this was only over the telephone due to the distance between them.
