Independent Living is a not-for-profit organisation, committed to making daily living easier. We’re your friendly community experts on all things related to disability and maintaining independence.

From generic information through to walking stick testing, products for sale and hire, we can also help you navigate the health and disability sector and access funding options. We offer brochures and information in a wide variety of languages, and we sell a huge tried-and-tested range of daily living aids.

Most importantly, we care about what people can do. We focus on abilities, we find solutions, and we work to understand the unique situation of everyone who comes to us. Many of us have experienced disability ourselves, so what we do has deep personal meaning to us.

Empowering you to live your best life, with ease.
