The theme for the 2023 edition of the European Social Services Awards was ‘Promoting Person-centred Care’. Under this year’s theme, the Awards honoured over 200 finalists from across Europe and recognised the organisations and people that are rethinking their services to provide care which is centred around the person, coordinated between services and professionals and enables people to live independent lives and be fully included in their communities.
