We believe every conflict can be resolved through understanding, respect and open communication
Welcome to Basingstoke Mediation Service: Resolving Conflict, Restoring Harmony
At Basingstoke Mediation Service, we believe that every conflict, no matter how complex, holds the potential for resolution. Our mission is to guide individuals and organisations through disputes with understanding, respect, and open communication, creating a path towards a positive outcome without the stress and expense of legal action.
Our Approach
Conflict is a natural part of life, but it doesn't have to lead to lasting division. Founded on the principle of empowering people to find their own solutions, our service offers a constructive and confidential alternative to formal proceedings. We provide a neutral and supportive environment where all parties can share their perspectives, clarify misunderstandings, and work together to find common ground.
Led by our qualified and experienced mediator, Debbie Watkins, we bring a calm, impartial, and professional presence to even the most tense situations. We understand that disputes can arise in any setting, and we are skilled in navigating the unique dynamics of conflicts involving:
-
Workplaces: Assisting employees and management to resolve disagreements and improve professional relationships.
-
Neighbourhoods: Helping neighbours settle disputes over boundaries, noise, and other community issues.
-
Families: Guiding family members through difficult conversations and disagreements.
-
Customers & Businesses: Facilitating resolutions between companies and their clients.

-
Empowering: You remain in control of the outcome, working towards a practical and lasting agreement that suits everyone involved.
-
Confidential: Discussions are held in private, allowing for open and honest dialogue.
-
Flexible: We offer both in-person mediation across Hampshire, Berkshire, Surrey, and Wiltshire, as well as online sessions available nationwide.
