Nanny's NHS Christmas Party

My commiserations to the good people of Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, who have been sent an edict by Nanny's equality and diversity team about how to hold their Christmas parties.

In brief the edict says:

1 Choose a time that is friendly to mothers, lest someone sues for discrimination (what sort of people sue because they can't attend a party?)

2 Avoid pubs. For why? Lest there be age discrimination (for the wee kiddies under 18 who work in our hospitals).

3 Cater (foodwise) for all religions and "disabled staff".

4 Make sure the date doesn't clash with other religious festivals (why?, isn't Christmas meant to be a "Christian" thing?)

5 Carry out a risk assessment (pass the sick bag someone!)

6 Don't skive off the next day with a hangover (in other words, come to work and perform an operation whilst drunk!). Good advice!!

The edict also lists contact details for three companies providing interpreting services, as well as an out-of-hours contact for an organisation specialising in sign language and lip-reading for the deaf.

What a truly ghastly way to organise a party, I certainly wouldn't want to go to one of these!
