South East London Mediation Services (SELFMB) provide a range of mediation services.

"Elder mediation" (just one of their services - see more at their website) consists of disputes about and/or family conflict over, the care of elderly relatives.

They can facilitate family discussions about matters relating to safety, finances and capabilities while keeping in mind the elder family member’s needs.

Examples of ‘Elder’ issues that can be addressed through mediation include:

• family communication;
  
• care home disputes;
  
• future care options;
  
• living arrangements;
  
• decision making processes;
  
• including the elder’s voice;
  
• family members’ roles and responsibilities;
  
• care-giver burnout
  
• and planning and anticipating issues before crises develop.
  

They charge per session (not per hour) and they apply a ‘sliding scale’. See the fee page on their website: http://www.selfmb.org.uk/referrals/costs/

Most sessions last between 1.5 - 2 hours.

At a first (MIAM) meeting, the mediator will be able to give you an estimate of how much mediation is likely to cost, based on their understanding of what it is you hope to deal with. They will also help you check if you can get legal aid to help pay for it.

Open: Mon - Fri: 9.30am - 5.00pm with out of hours appointments available on request.
