Empowering PA Employers Across the UK

Welcome to ILG Community. Our mission is to create a supportive and collaborative space for PA employers across the UK, fostering the exchange of experiences and uniting voices to influence the shaping of health and care services.

Because social care isn’t working – and we refuse to accept that.

Who We Are

We are ILG Community – a group of disabled people who employ PAs. Our members also cover those who run budgets for other people, those who use self-employed or agency PAs.

We know what it means to navigate a system that too often fails us. We believe in real choice, real control, and a future where disabled people are not restricted by budgets but empowered to live their lives fully.

Whether funded by the local authority, NHS, or self-funding, all PA employers are welcome to be part of our community.

Our group covers England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales.

Why we are needed

Challenging the Broken System

ILG Community exists because we refuse to accept a system that restricts our lives based on budgets. Social care in the UK is in crisis, leaving many disabled individuals without the support they need.

We believe in fighting for a system that offers real choice and control and ensuring that no one is left in poverty due to their care needs. For many of us, the support we receive through social care determines the life we are able to live.

More and more, we are losing the right to choose where we live, pursue our hobbies and interests, see friends and family, and take part in work or volunteering.

These are fundamental rights, and they should not be denied.

We stand together to demand a compassionate social care system that empowers disabled people to participate in society without constant battles for basic support.

Our collective voice is stronger, and we are committed to making a difference.

Join us in our mission to transform social care.

Together, we can create a better, fairer system for everyone.
