Our Story

Independent Living Alternatives (ILA) was established in May 1989 and is managed by people who use the services provided by the organisation. ILA promotes independence and freedom for disabled people. ILA aims to enable people who need personal assistance to be able to live independently in the community and take full control of their lives and thereby have individuality and spontaneity. ILA recruits personal assistants and establishes the personal assistance as a direct part of an individual’s life.

ILA provides Personal Assistants (PAs) to people who need personal assistance in day-to-day living; people generally classified by society as having ‘severe disabilities’ and who need a constant and high level of personal assistance. ILA does not work with people who are ill, but people who have physical limitations in their lives.

We believe that everyone has a right to live independently and to have control over their own life.
