Council Tax reduction

Apply for a reduction to help you pay some of your Council Tax if you are on a low income or claiming certain benefits.

Council Tax reduction is a Council Tax discount that reduces the amount of Council Tax you have to pay. 

You may qualify if you are on a low income or claim benefits.  The maximum discount you can receive is 100%. The size of the discount depends on your age, income, savings and who else lives with you.

You can apply for the Council Tax reduction scheme, upload evidence to support your application or find an existing application on our Council Tax reduction page.  

Tell us about any changes to your circumstances, as this could impact any discounts or exemptions you receive.
