This week is Family Mediation Week which is aimed at creating more awareness of the option of mediation for separated families as a way to try and resolve both financial matters and help with child arrangements upon separation.
This coincides nicely with an announcement by the Deputy Prime Minister, Dominic Raab, yesterday that the Ministry of Justice will be investing a further £1.3 Million into the Family Mediation Voucher Scheme. This brings the total funds invested to over £3 million.
This is fantastic news for families and means that Mediators like us can continue to offer our clients these vouchers towards their costs.
This acknowledges the significant benefits of the mediation process for children and families, and it is hoped that 2022 will see a step change in family mediation to become the forefront of a joined-up approach to enable parents and those who are separating to settle their disputes outside of Court.
