Hospital patient discount

A Council Tax reduction may be applied if an occupant is a long term hospital patient who is unlikely to return home.

In order to award the discount we require a signed declaration from the Hospital. If you do not already have this declaration you should download it now before you proceed with your application. The declaration will have to be uploaded as part of the application process.

If your application is successful, your discount will be reviewed annually.
