Family Mediation Week: 26-30th January 2026
Family Mediation Week provides an opportunity for everybody to learn more about family mediation and its benefits.
Family Mediation Week takes place from Monday 26 – Friday 30 January 2026, organised by the Family Mediation Council (FMC), a not-for-profit organisation whose aim is to promote the use of family mediation for the benefit of the public. The FMC does not offer mediation itself.
The week aims to raise awareness of how family mediation can help separating couples make arrangements for children, property and finances in a calmer, more constructive way.
The life-changing decision to separate brings with it so many tough questions:
- Who lives where?
- Where will the children live, and how will we make sure we each spend time with them?
- How will we sort money?
- What about debts and pensions?
- And even the family dog?
In family mediation, an independent, professionally-trained mediator helps you work things out together, enabling you to avoid courtroom confrontation and all the stress, delay and cost it can bring.
Professional mediators help you to create long-term solutions for your particular circumstances, rather than leaving it to a court to make decisions for your family.
