Five new councils in England, Wales and Scotland joined NRPF Connect in 2024–25, bringing the total number of subscribers to 90.

Some new joiners may not have added data by the time that the report was run. One council joined after 31 March 2025 and added data for households they had been financially supporting during 2024–25, which has been included in the collective data.

The total number of councils that have social care responsibilities, and therefore could potentially subscribe to NRPF Connect, are:

  • 153 in England
  • 32 in Scotland
  • 22 in Wales
  • 5 Health and Social Care trusts in Northern Ireland

However, we would not expect councils to subscribe to NRPF Connect when they only rarely receive referrals relating to support for residents with no recourse to public funds, although there is no minimum requirement to be able to use the system in terms of the number of households receiving support.

Currently no Health and Social Care trusts in Northern Ireland are using NRPF Connect.

Some councils in England have delegated social care responsibilities to a trust. In Scotland, social care responsibilities may be delegated to a health and social care partnership. Where such arrangements are in place, the council is recorded as the subscriber to NRPF Connect.
