You may qualify for Council Tax Support, also called Council Tax Reduction, if you are a single parent on a low income or receiving certain benefits. Each council runs its own scheme, so the amount and eligibility rules can differ depending on where you live, your income, savings, rent and household circumstances. If you are the only adult in your home, you may also be able to claim a 25% single-person Council Tax discount; children under 18 usually do not count as adults. Apply through your local council’s website or check the relevant guidance on GOV.UK.
