The Rehab People of the Year Awards was an annual awards ceremony in Ireland organised by the Rehab Group, televised by RTÉ television. The People of the Year Awards were given to people who "bring joy and light to the lives of others or have supported others in their darkest hours". The nominees were chosen by members of the public. The winners were then chosen by a panel of adjudicators, composed of leading members of the media, voluntary sector and business community.
