Each year, the 112 Awards Ceremony rewards outstanding individuals and organisations particularly engaged in improving public safety across Europe. In 2018, the winners were honoured at the 112 Awards Ceremony, organised in conjunction with the EENA Conference in Ljubljana.
Emergency services and citizens from all over Europe were celebrated for their outstanding contributions to saving lives.
We would like to congratulate all of this year’s awardees and thank them for inspiring all of us with their actions!
