Max Reid, Manager of Dunedin Community Mediation, addressed last week's meeting attended by 23 members.  His role today was to promote the services offered. While the organisation has been running for some two years, it is somewhat below the radar and not as widely used as it could be.
 
Max sees it as being a suitable way to resolve conflict or disagreement, be that be between neighbours, clubs or families. He led by suggesting referral could also be from lawyers or indeed from Courts.
 
Mediators do not take sides or apportion blame or tell people what they should do. Neither do they make decisions or judgements or give legal advice. Their considerable skills are applied in guiding people through a process of closing the impasse and have them reach a
decision, they can live with.
 
A process this reviewer highly recommends --------- gChesney
