Disabled Reductions

Disabled Reductions

If you, or someone who lives with you, need a room - or an extra bathroom or kitchen, or extra space, or use a wheelchair in your home - to meet special needs arising from a disability, you may be entitled to a reduction in your Council Tax bill.

We award reductions by assuming the band of your property is the one immediately below that showing in the valuation list. Band A properties are reduced from 6/9 to 5/9 of the Band D charge.

Many people are not aware of this reduction, or the circumstances in which it is given. If you are not sure if you qualify, please contact the Council Tax Section
