  • Page 1 of 16

In certain cases you may qualify for a council tax reduction, for example, if only one adult lives in your home, if you're disabled, or if you live with people we don't count for council tax purposes like a full-time student, a student nurse or a carer.

There are various discounts that you may be eligible to claim to reduce your bill.  Click here to view a document which explains the discounts that are currently available.
