Council Tax Reductions for pensioners

Pensioners

If you are of pensionable age, there are 2 types of help we may be able to give you with your Council Tax bill.

• Council Tax Reduction - if you have less than £16,000 in savings and are on a low income, or
• Second Adult Rebate - see below for further details

Find out your State Pension Age by visiting the Gov.uk website.
