If you, or any member of your household, is disabled and your home contains:

A second bathroom or kitchen required for meeting the needs of the disabled person.
A room set aside to provide facilities for the disabled person.
Sufficient room for the disabled person to use his or her wheelchair indoors.

Then you may qualify for a reduction in your Council Tax bill. The amount of Council Tax payable will be reduced to the band below your property's band assessed by the listing officer of the Valuation Office Agency.

You can receive this reduction even if your property is in Band A. Your reduction will be 1/6 of Band A.

A regular review of all reductions is carried out. If your circumstances change you must contact us immediately.

If you want more information about reductions for people with disabilities, then please contact us.

Council Tax Benefit is available to help people meet their Council Tax liability. It can be awarded to people who have low income.
