Family Mediation

We support parents and children through family change and disruption as a result of separation, divorce or family restructuring. Family mediation sessions take place in our Dumfries Office.

The aim of mediation is to agree on practical, workable arrangements for the future, taking into account children’s views, needs and feelings. Our focus is on putting children’s needs first. We do not help parents get back together.

Although mediation is primarily for parents whose relationship is over, it’s for all sorts of families – married and unmarried, younger and older, with or without children.

We have practical advice on how mediation helps and what happens at a mediation session.

How much does it cost?

We ask for a £15 registration fee to be paid at the initial session and welcome donations at any subsequent sessions. The overall costs for each mediation session is approximately £50.
