We are proud to have been part of the European Social Services Conference 2026 held in Malta 🇲🇹

Bringing together hundreds of professionals, frontline workers, and policymakers from across Europe and beyond, the conference once again proved to be a powerful platform for exchanging ideas, sharing best practices, and exploring innovative approaches across key social themes including disability, child protection, governance, housing, and technology.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the European Social Network for their continued partnership and for delivering such a high-quality and impactful event.

It was a pleasure connecting with so many inspiring individuals and organisations throughout the conference. A special thank you to everyone who attended the case study session on Independent Living: Enabling Personal Choice. Your engagement and contributions made the discussion truly meaningful.

We leave with fresh perspectives, strengthened collaborations, and renewed motivation to continue improving social services together.

Looking forward to continuing these conversations at ESSA 2026!

As part of the European Social Services Conference 2026, Aġenzija Sapport hosted a study visit showcasing its approach to independent living services.

The visit provided a practical insight into service delivery, with a strong emphasis on multidisciplinary collaboration across Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy, and Speech & Language Therapy.

Participants were given insights into assessments related to mobility, seating, adapted driving, and assistive technologies. They also explored how Augmentative & Alternative Communication (AAC) and Electronic Assistive Technology (EAT) enhance participation and improve quality of life.

Overall, the visit highlighted how person-centred services can empower persons with disabilities to live independently and be fully included in their communities.
