Council Tax - Discounts and Council Tax Support

The amount of council tax you have to pay depends on:

  • the valuation band in which your property has been placed
  • the number of people aged 18 or over living in your property (when we calculate your council tax we assume that two people, aged 18 or over, live in most properties).
  • if you are on a low income you may be entitled to council tax support.

Council Tax Support

If your household has a low income, you may be entitled to a reduction in the amount of council tax you have to pay. This is called Council Tax Support.
