Apply for money off your bill

In some cases you may be entitled to get money off your council tax bill, for example if your income reduces, if you have to leave your property empty or if you are living on your own. 

This includes single adults, empty properties, students, second homes, carers, people with disabilities and other circumstances.

Cancel a discount on your bill

If you receive a discount on your bill, you must Contact Council Tax Reduction to let us know when your circumstances change within 21 days. You may receive a fine if you claim a discount or exemption that you are no longer entitled to.

You can cancel a single person discount online.
