What is Mediation?

Mediation is a voluntary process that offers separated or divorced couples living in and around the Reading area in England, the opportunity to meet together with trained mediators, to consider through negotiations, the decisions and arrangements that need to be made following separation or divorce.

These may be arrangements for the children, who can benefit from the continuing interest and involvement from both parents.
