Council Tax Disabled Band Relief

If you, or someone who lives with you, have a specific facility which is required to meet the special needs arising from a disability, you may qualify for a reduction on the banding of the property.

To qualify the property must have

  • at least one disabled person permanently resident, and either
  • a special room used specifically to meet the needs of the disabled person, or
  • a second bathroom or kitchen used specifically to meet the needs of the disabled person, or
  • sufficient space so that a wheelchair may be used about the property on a daily basis.

The Council Tax bill may be reduced by 1/9th of the charge for a property in Band D.

From the 1st April 2000, the scheme was extended to include those properties in Band A.

Please contact the Customer Contact Centre on (01952) 383838 if you wish to know more about the scheme.
