In 2023, more than 20% of the Walloon population was over 65 years of age, and this percentage continues to increase every year. This rapid ageing is putting increased pressure on home help and care services, which have become essential in enabling people to continue living at home in decent and dignified conditions.
There is no greater wealth than health, says the proverb.
This proverb has never been more true than when the term « health »covers all aspects of one's reality: physiological health, of course, but also mental, social and economic health.
Our services go beyond technical tasks and extend far beyond, to the realms of human relations and solidarity.
That is why summarising our daily work in a few pages and tables is thankless and incomplete. This report is a faithful reflection of the objective figures and data for the year 2024. The true meaning of our work is written and read every day in the homes of the 5,000 patients and beneficiaries who call on us. It is under all these roofs that the importance of our work and the pride in doing it well can truly be appreciated. This could not, and will not, be achieved without the support and mobilisation of all those who make up the federation.
