Council tax discounts and exemptions

There are discounts available which can reduce your council tax bill, while some properties can be exempt.

Discounts can reduce your bill by:

  • 25% when there is only one adult living at a property, or where a household has more than one adult but the other adults are disregarded for council tax purposes. 
  • 50% when all the adults are disregarded for different reasons or if there is only one adult who is disregarded and no exemption is available. 
  • Paying a lower band  with a disabled reduction.

Exemptions are granted to a property and not a person. Some exemptions can only be applied for a certain amount of time and may be unavailable if previously awarded. In some cases a property may need to be inspected by a visiting officer to award an exemption. 

To apply for a discount, please use the online forms available, or submit your completed PDF application form by:
