Hardship relief

We can reduce the amount of Business Rates owing where we are satisfied that:

a) the ratepayer would sustain hardship if it did not do so; and

b) it is reasonable for the council to do so, having regard to the interests of persons subject to its Council Tax.

Please note, the council only exercises this discretion in exceptional circumstances.

To see if your business is eligible for hardship relief, please read our guidance notes.

To apply for hardship relief, please complete our application form.
