2.8. Community Mediation

What is Community Mediation? 

This is a way of sorting out arguments between neighbours. An impartial person acts as a referee between the neighbours.  

Mediation can help with many problems, e.g.

  • Noise.

  • Rubbish.

  • Parking issues.

  • Lifestyle differences.

  • Shared spaces.

  • Boundaries and fences,high hedges and many others.


Use a Mediation Service


  • If you cannot resolve the dispute by speaking to your neighbour, get help from a mediation service.


  • There can be a fee for mediation, but this will still be cheaper than hiring a solicitor and taking legal action.
