Former Independent Living Fund Grant 2021 to 2022

Published 12 February 2021

Applies to England

Following the closure of the Independent Living Fund (ILF) in June 2015, the government agreed to continue funding pre-existing ILF arrangements until the end of 2019 to 2020, through the former ILF recipient grant. The grant continued to be paid in 2020 to 2021.

On 4 February 2021, the government confirmed that the former ILF recipient grant will continue to be paid to local authorities in 2021 to 2022. The total value of the grant in 2021 to 2022 will be maintained at the 2020 to 2021 value of £160.6 million, with the same approach to individual local authority allocations.
