Mediation is often a very effective way of resolving individual neighbour disputes. Any parties involved in a neighbour dispute will be encouraged to consider mediation where it is appropriate.

This involves resolving a problem by both parties talking through the issues and agreeing the next steps with the help of an independent trained mediator. With permission and where appropriate, we will refer to mediation at the earliest opportunity. It is not essential for both parties to meet, but it is encouraged as it helps to achieve a successful outcome.
