Welcome to Waterford Centre for Independent Living
Waterford Centre for Independent Living CLG empowers people with disabilities to live independently. We provide personal assistance and accessible transport to a wide range of clients across Waterford city and county. We are run by people with disabilities, for people with disabilities. There are very few organisations who can claim this. We understand the real issues facing people with disabilities because we face them too, on a daily basis.
Please note that while our office is on the grounds of Waterford Cheshire, we are a separate organisation. If you are looking to speak with Waterford Cheshire, please call them directly on 051 871 993.
Personal Assistance
All our personal assistants (PAs) are fully trained and Garda vetted. They arrive at the person’s home at an appointed time to perform a set of agreed tasks, such as getting dressed, having a shower, making the dinner, going to the shops or doing housework. They can make a huge difference to the quality of life for a person with a disability.
Accessible Transport
Waterford CIL operates a fully accessible transport service called Vantastic. Anyone with a disability can avail of our service for a moderate fee – whether it’s to go shopping, to the cinema, to a hospital appointment – whatever you need to live an independent life. We have a number of mini buses in both Dungarvan and Waterford city.
