Qualifications and Accreditations
The Full Story
When choosing a mediator we believe it is important that they are qualified and adhere to set standards and Codes of Practice.
​
That's why you'll find all of TWFMP's mediators are Family Mediation Council (FMC) accredited or working towards their accreditation. ​
