Sligo Community Mediation Service is supported by volunteer mediators and conflict coaches to provide support to community groups, families, couples, neighbours and individuals who may be in conflict, experiencing disputes or needing support in having difficult conversations. We offer this service for a nominal fee or donation. The mediation is a voluntary process in which people in a dispute agre
e to meet with trained co-mediator who is neutral and impartial. The approach is to facilitate and empower parties to resolve their own conflicts and to build better relationships. Throughout the process, the mediators creates an environment which allows people to listen to each other in situations where normal lines of communication have broken down. Participation in a mediation process encourages mutual respect and can help sort out disputes confidentially. The parties to the dispute – not the mediators – create their own solutions to the conflict and decide upon a joint agreement.
