Family Mediation £500 Voucher Scheme extended to 2027

We’re delighted to report that the Ministry of Justice have chosen to extend the Family Mediation Voucher Scheme into 2027. The scheme provides low-income families with a £500 voucher to spend on mediation services, to support them in resolving issues arising from family breakdown.

Research has shown that around two-thirds of families using the scheme were able to reach a full or partial settlement without needing to go to court. This underlines the value of the scheme which helps families to work with independent mediators in a safe environment to find solutions and reach agreements on family issues with less conflict and better outcomes for children.

Our team includes three mediators, Richard, Hana and Verity. Richard has achieved the status of Accredited Family Mediator which allows him to conduct statutory Mediation Information & Assessment Meetings (MIAMs), as well as mediations funded by the UK Government’s Family Mediation Voucher Scheme.
