Help for people in conflict
Find a way through your conflict with our support for individuals
Sometimes people find themselves in conflicts which can seem impossible to get out of. It might have started small, but for whatever reason, it is now creating stress and anxiety in your life.
We are here to help. We offer expert support for those in conflict. We specialise in social-impact mediation in the voluntary sector, particularly helping trustee and their boards.
We know how hard it can be to know what to say or do. Our staff are trained in how to support you to have the difficult conversations which lead to the relief and peace of a settled issue.
Mediation
Mediation is when a trained conflict expert helps you and the person you are in conflict with to come to an agreement. It’s a voluntary process owned by you. The mediator is there to guide a conversation between you and the other person, so that you can both be heard and move forward.
If successful, you will come away with a signed agreement or a deeper understanding of the situation that allows you to move forward with your life. We mediate conflicts:
Between neighbours
Commercial/contractual
Or simply anywhere there has been a break down of relationship
We don’t cover family mediation yet but you can find a family mediator near you here.
“We could never have had that conversation without mediators.
The mediators helped us to identify our objective for the mediation. This really encouraged us to lean into the conversation to get the most out of it, even just to be heard.”

Conflict coaching
Conflict coaching is when a trained conflict expert helps you to work through a conflict in a private session. This gives you space to talk through in a safe environment how you can helpfully move forward and reduce stress in your situation.
We know how hard it can be to know what to say or do. Our staff are trained in how to have the difficult conversations which lead to the relief and peace of a settled issue.
Mediation and conflict coaching ultimately help people turn stressful conflicts into situations they can live with. They often involve courage – like most things worth doing – but we are here to make it as easy as possible.
Sweeping conflict under the carpet or going it alone can often lead to more conflict. We can’t guarantee that we will make your whole life trouble-free, but we will help you find more hope and freedom in a difficult situation.
