The Council Tax Benefit Scheme is designed to assist people
with the payment of their Council Tax, if they are on a low income
or in receipt of Income Support, Guaranteed Pension Credit or
Income-based Job Seekers allowance.
You may not qualify, however, if you have savings (or joint
savings if you have a partner) of more than £16,000.
If you believe that you should be
entitled to Council Tax benefit, please contact us on (01748)
829100 and ask to speak to a member of the Benefits Team, or
alternatively you can e-mail us at
