Band reductions for disabled residents

If you, or someone who lives with you has a disability resulting in an adaptation to the property you live in, you may qualify for a reduction on your Council Tax.

To qualify the property must have: 

  • At least one disabled person permanently resident, and either
  • A special room used specifically to meet the needs of the disabled person, or
  • A second bathroom or kitchen used specifically to meet the needs of the disabled person, or
  • Sufficient space so that a wheelchair may be used about the property on a daily basis

Council Tax reduction

The Council Tax bill may be reduced so that you pay in the band lower than your property is actually in.  For example if your property is in band E you will pay the charge for a property in band D.  If your property is already in band A, the lowest band, your bill is reduced by 1/9th of the band D charge for your area.
