Council Tax

Coronavirus (Covid-19) update - Council Tax payments and recovery

If you are struggling to pay your Council Tax, there is support available from the Council and from other agencies. You can find out about financial support available on our benefits home page. You should also:

• Make sure that you have claimed all of the benefits that you are entitled to. For working age families this is Universal Credit from the DWP and Council Tax Support from the Council. 
• Please visit our Change in Circumstances page to make sure you are getting all of the support you are entitled to.
• We also have a dedicated caseworker service, who can offer you information and advice on a range of welfare benefits and budgeting support. Please complete our caseworker contact form.
• If you would like to check your Council Tax account balance, you can register for an online account.

We appreciate that this is a difficult time for many of our residents and that the Coronavirus (Covid-19) is having a significant impact on our economy and services. We would encourage everyone to contact us if you are experiencing difficulty paying so we can offer support and advice.  We might be able to arrange an alternative payment plan for your Council Tax due in 2021/22.
