What sort of Mediator do I need?
Deciding which is best
Mediation is a powerful but simple tool that we have described here. However, there are different fields of mediation in the UK and these are usually described in at least four different categories as follows:
1) There is civil or commercial mediation which is supervised by the Civil Mediation Council in the UK. Mediation is used in these cases normally to resolve financial-based disputes in preference to litigation.
2) Family mediation is a more humane and cost-effective way of dealing with the consequences of divorce than through court proceedings
3) Workplace mediation is an affective way of resolving employment and workplace disputes, again saving those involved the stress, time and money spent on reaching agreement
4) Community and Inter-personal mediation offers a way of resolving differences experienced in relationships between those involved in neighbourhood conflicts
Peaceworks' mediators can work in all these fields so call us now to discuss your case in complete confidence.

An excellent course - you will come away much better equipped to deal positively with those you meet
The process of mediation should be common practice in society.
Very enjoyable course in a safe, engaging learning environment. Thank you
Experience and insights of the trainers is a major bonus of this course
'It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it.'
I found the course extremely invigorating - it really stimulated me and I felt I had learned so much
It felt more like de-constructing some existing skills and putting them back together in a new way
I loved the informality of the group within the formality of the training
A great course for anyone working in an environment using interpersonal skills, dealing with conflict
Would love the chance to attend again in the future. I used some of the skills acquired on the same day
Peaceworks is an outstanding organisation and the skills of your team have brought about so much reconciliation
I am now better placed to tackle conflict at home and in the workplace
'Micha was terrific and put everyone at ease, and gave everyone plenty of opportunity to say their bit.'
What a great couple of weeks I've had with Peaceworks!
This was a very high quality course. An excellent intro to conflict resolution and mediation
The course was exceptionally well facilitated (the best I've ever experienced)
"Mediation as a procedure is a helpful, neutral tool toward resolving 'lock-up', enabling all parties to feel heard and valued, and affording practiced agreements and a way forward. Peaceworks facilitated and provoked this process advisably. I think the private 'time out' sessions for individuals were essential for calming tense moments. I also think those called by the lead mediators, particularly in the afternoon, were probably key to releasing some of the lock-up." PG November 2010
