TESTIMONIALS The pride felt by the teams and individuals was clear to see and the public recognition provided by the awards was visibly important to them. Marion Brown, Independent Mediator and Consultant Following my attendance at The PMA National Mediation Awards last Thursday, I felt truly inspired by the energy and commitment of the other participants and from learning about the wide range of outstanding mediation practice. Many thanks for all the hard work of those involved in arranging such a wonderful event. Julia Moss, Independent Mediator and Consultant I find the awards to be inspirational as they encourage and recognise the work that goes into mediation and resolving conflict, I wish more people had a better understanding on how beneficial mediation can be.
