Ashford Mediation Service

Ashford Mediation Service recently gave a talk at a Speaker Meeting of The Rotary Club of Ashford. Tessa Wyatt and Sandy Malone of Ashford Mediation Service gave a talk to the group about how the service works, as well as examples of the variety of the help available. A key part of the presentation and discussion was around how AMS and its team of mediators are able to unlock tricky issues, allow people to de-stress and move on and prevent conflict from escalating.  You can find out more about the work of Ashford Mediation Service and the services available to residents of Ashford here .
