Texts and emails from us about late payments

We will be texting or emailing residents who are late paying their Council Tax. This communication is genuine but if you’d like reassurance you can log in to check your online account or pay online. There is no need to contact us if you've already paid.

Apply for a Council Tax exemption if all occupants are under 18 years old

You are exempt from Council Tax if the property is occupied by either one person under 18 years old or a number of people who are all under 18 years old.

Once one occupant becomes 18 years old, they would become liable for the Council Tax (unless any other discounts or exemptions apply).

Information required

As part of your application, you will need to tell us the:

  • names of all occupiers
  • dates of birth of all occupiers
