Hardship Relief

The Council can award rate relief on the grounds of hardship.

We can reduce or cancel rates if:

  • you would suffer hardship if the Council made you pay and
  • on balance, it would be in the interests of the Council Tax payers to reduce or cancel your rates

This relief is administered under Section 49 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988.
