Whether providing care and support in someone's home or information and advice over the phone, the work of Independent Lives continues to have a tremendous impact on people's lives.

For example, last year our care staff provided nearly 70,000 hours of support to people in their homes, our payroll service processed over 16,000 payrolls and our information and advice team provided support over 7,700 times – all phenomenal achievements.
