R (Z) v Hackney LBC [2020] UKSC 40

When Z and her family needed social housing she turned to her local council for support. Unfortunately the search took longer than expected because one of the charities that provides such accommodation only does so for members of the Orthodox Jewish community. In this anti-discrimination case the Supreme Court has to balance the needs of those who require housing against the aims and wishes of charitable organisations. Music from bensound.com
