UDC Council Tax Exceptional Hardship Fund

This fund has been set up to support our most vulnerable customers who have seen a reduction in the Government support which helped to pay their Council Tax Liability or for those who are suffering financial hardship due to unforeseen circumstances. These support payments are set up to provide short term relief and therefore should not be seen as a long term solution to debt problems. Applicants will need to ensure they have taken all reasonable steps to resolve their own situation prior to application.

Remote In-person

Who can use this service?
