The Quarrel Shop is a 6-month part-time training and volunteering course for young London-based volunteers aged 16 – 21 years.

The young people learn mediation, communication and conflict resolution skills using discussions, games, exercises and role-play. The training is followed by practice opportunities where the young people, supervised by an adult worker, design and run workshops on conflict resolution for other young people or facilitate mediation in a real situation.

The young people can gain an Open College Network-accredited certification at level 2 or 3 on completion of the course. The project was shortlisted for a Philip Lawrence Award in 2002, for encouraging active citizenship.

We are now recruiting for the next Quarrel Shop training
