the3million wins Outstanding Achievement Award
We're really excited to share that the3million has won in the Outstanding Achievement category at the EmpowerEU awards.
We're really humbled and grateful to have our impact celebrated.
Our journey started in 2016 with people coming together driven by uncertainty and fear over what would happen to their rights, and deciding to have a say in it.
Since then, our whole sector has grown into a community, a movement, and a vital lifeline for many. We're proud to be able to contribute to this ecosystem through our work at the3million.
The EmpowerEU Awards are a fantastic celebration of the EU citizens' sector. Thank you to the EU Delegation to the UK for bringing us together - it makes a powerful statement on the importance of standing up for EU citizens' rights.
Thomas and Liliana shared their story on how our work impacted them.
"I was ready to give up on trying to make a life in the UK, when my EU Settlement Scheme application was refused. I reached out to the3million and their compassion, professionalism and knowledge helped me achieve what seemed impossible. I found hope again.
I applaud the team at the3million for their endeavours to positively impact lives, and my gratitude for them knows no bounds." - Thomas
