As Director of Out of Conflict Limited, David Hilton is a nationally Accredited Mediator with over ten years' experience.

He was a longstanding member of the former Mediation UK Education and Youth Steering Committee. David spent time in Northern Ireland studying conflict resolution with the Education for Mutual Understanding programme in schools and communities there. Subsequent specialist training has enabled Out of Conflict Limited to be contracted in to provide conciliation nationally in respect of the Disability Discrimination Act and regional casework in victim/offender fields of restorative justice.
