Every Local Authority is required to offer a Council Tax Support/Reduction scheme, the support available can vary significantly depending on your circumstances.

All Councils will offer multiple kinds of reductions, discounts, and possible exemptions. Some of these have automatic entitlement criteria, while others are means tested and look at levels of savings and income.

Support available from the Local Authority can range from the automatic 25% single person reduction for people who are the only adult in their home, to 100% discounts for people in receipt of certain benefits and in specific situations.

It is well worth checking what level of reduction or discount on your Council Tax Bill you may be entitled to.
