Residents urged to check eligibility for Council Tax Reduction scheme
As part of ongoing efforts to support local households with the rising cost of living across London and the UK, we're contacting residents who may be eligible for Council Tax Reduction. The scheme can reduce Council Tax bills by up to 100% for those on low incomes or certain benefits, helping to ease pressure on already stretched household budgets.

He also reaffirmed our unwavering commitment to fostering understanding, safety and unity across all our communities.
