The prestigious ceremony, hosted by BBC newsreader and presenter Joanna Gosling, will take place on 8 December at the House of Commons and will be live-streamed worldwide.

An honour to be shortlisted for Child Inclusive Mediator of the Year Award

Edward was thrilled to hear he had been shortlisted:

“Being shortlisted for this award is a real honour, particularly given the calibre of my fellow nominees, Sheila Turner and Helen Adam who are both hugely respected in the field of child-inclusive mediation. We all share the same principles in our approach to reducing friction and animosity in divorce and separation and giving children a true voice in the process. It really is a very proud moment and I wish them both the best of luck on the night.”
