Affinity with rural industries:

I have lived and worked in the regional areas of Bourke, Moree, Inverell, Quirindi, Dubbo and Tamworth since 1995. This work has given me an understanding of farming and regional issues. My wife is from a farming family in Tamworth.

I am happy to travel to conduct mediations. I will travel to the New England/ North West, Central West, Hunter and Maitland/Newcastle, as well as the North Coast of NSW. These areas are generally within three-four hours of my base in Tamworth. I will also conduct mediations over telephone or video platforms such as Zoom. I have done this on many occasions, especially through the COVID pandemic.

I am accredited under the National Mediation Accreditation System (NMAS) and am registered with the Attorney General’s Department as a Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner. I am a member of the Resolution Institute. I have completed workplace mediations, NGO’s and Government Departments. I have mediated disputes between property owners.

I believe that relationships are key. The mediations that I facilitate focus on ensuring that the issue can be resolved, and that the relationship can be repaired. I understand that conflict can take people down a road that can make them uncharacteristically combative. My Mediation Business, Kelly Mediation and Assessment Services, is based in Tamworth.
