Disability reduction scheme

You may receive a reduction on your Council Tax if a disabled person lives in your property and:

• uses a wheelchair inside with room to do so
• uses a second bathroom or kitchen which is required for meeting their needs
• There is a room which is predominantly used by and required for meeting the needs of the disabled person

If your property is band C, you would pay a band B charge. If you live in a band A property, you would receive a discount of 1/6 of the band A charge.
