Celebrating Innovation and Excellence in Social Services

✦

At the forefront of providing support to individuals, families and communities — particularly during times of crisis — social services are central to creating caring, inclusive, and productive societies.

The annual European Social Services Awards acknowledge outstanding achievements in social services. Organised by the European Social Network, the Awards shine a spotlight on successful new approaches and the extraordinary ongoing work of public social services managers, funders, planners, providers, and deliverers.
