What is Mediation?
Mediation is a way of resolving disagreements between people.
A Mediator is there to help create an environment, in which all people involved can express their views individually, whilst the other person or persons are encouraged to listen. Mediation aims to achieve a win-win situation where all people involved are happy with the outcome.
