SUMMARY:Mediate 2026 Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:At the heart of every conflict lies a relationship\, whether between colleagues\, business partners\, family members\, communities\, or institutions. Equally\, the process of mediation does more than resolve disputes; it influences how parties see one another\, communicate\, and move forward together. This conference explores the dynamic and reciprocal connection between relationships and mediation\, examining how each shapes and transforms the other. \nBringing together mediators\, conflict resolution practitioners\, legal professionals\, academics\, organisational leaders\, and policymakers\, the event will provide a platform for learning\, dialogue\, and innovation. Through keynote presentations\, panel discussions\, interactive workshops\, and case studies\, participants will explore the human dimensions of conflict and the powerful role mediation plays in fostering understanding\, trust\, and constructive engagement. \nThis event offers an opportunity to connect with peers\, share experiences\, and contribute to a deeper understanding of mediation’s role in strengthening relationships and building more collaborative\, resilient communities. \nWe’re not online this year and will be fully focussed on the discussions in the room. It’s a great chance to meet other mediators\, learn from other’s best practice and perhaps to make some new relationships yourself. \nSpeakers: \nProfessor Bryan Clark\, Head of the School of Law\, Lancaster University: \nAre Relationships Possible Using AI \nLaura Kerbey\, Author\, Speaker and Specialist Education Consultant: \nRelationships\, Mediation & Neurodiversity \nJanice Lee\, Coach\, Supervisor and Mediator: \nThe Four Conversations – Towards Resolving Conflict \nFiona Gray\, MCIPD is an experienced HR Business Partner\, Mediator and founder of Mediation with Fiona\, and Colin Sturrock\, MCIPD is an experienced HR Consultant\, Mediator and founder of Seton HR Solutions.

SUMMARY:Managing Relationships in the Third Sector
DESCRIPTION:Working or serving as a trustee in charities and voluntary organisations can be deeply rewarding—but managing relationships can also be challenging. The passion and commitment people bring to the third sector\, combined with the complex dynamics between employees\, trustees\, volunteers and partners\, can increase the risk of misunderstanding and conflict. Partnership working\, where different values\, cultures and priorities meet\, can further heighten tensions. \nFor over ten years\, Scottish Mediation has supported third sector organisations to manage and resolve conflict constructively\, helping them avoid stressful\, time-consuming and potentially damaging disputes. \nThis three-hour online workshop provides a practical opportunity to explore: \n\nthe common causes of conflict in the third sector and how disputes can escalate\neffective approaches to managing relationships and addressing complaints\nconstructive ways to resolve disagreements before they become entrenched\n\nFacilitated by experienced practitioners from Scottish Mediation\, the session draws on established mediation techniques and also offers clear insight into how mediation works\, when it is most effective\, and how it can support healthier organisational relationships. \nWho should attend? Anyone working or volunteering in the Third Sector. Attendees can claim 3 hour CPD. \nCost: £50 including handout and certificate. \nTo book this event please click HERE
