Our Story

We know how difficult it can be to find the right personal care — and how much it changes lives when you do.

UKCIL began with first-hand experience supporting relatives, friends and neighbours to live independently at home. That real-world journey made one thing clear: people need a better way to find Personal Assistants — quickly, affordably, and with confidence — without handing control (and cost) over to traditional agencies.

What started in Leeds quickly grew because it worked. Demand and results took UKCIL beyond a single city and into communities across the UK. As more employers used the platform, the message was consistent: UKCIL gives people choice, transparency, and control over the PA recruitment process.

Today, UKCIL has a strong national presence. We support employers, Personal Care Assistants, care organisations and funding bodies across the country — helping them connect, recruit, and manage personal care more effectively. We’re proud to be a trusted, UK-wide platform for independent living and personal care recruitment, and we’d be delighted to support you wherever you are.
