Single Person discount

A household with one adult occupier (over the age of 18yrs) is entitled to a 25% discount.  This is not a means tested discount and applies where there is only one adult resident.  The Council will check discount claims with third party records to ensure accuracy.

Please apply using the on-line form available on the right-hand side of this page.

Even where there are two or more adults, you could still get the 25% discount if other  adult residents are disregarded.  Please see the information on Disregarded People.
