Independent Living Fund Scotland (ILF Scotland) is an executive non-departmental public body of the Scottish Government.[1]

It was set up in July 2015, taking over responsibility from the Independent Living Fund which had been abolished in June 2015, with the new fund no longer accepting new applications. It administers the payments for both Scotland and Northern Ireland.[2]

In April 2024, the Scottish government reopened the ILF for new applications, restricted to people living in Scotland.[3]
