COVID-19 discretionary help with council tax

Yesterday Mr Mustard saw this council tweet

Mr Mustard was slightly surprised at the apparently generous council action as the budget was under incredible pressure even before the pandemic but once he clicked through to the detail he saw the reason for the largesse, central government had given the council the money to give away. The following information is from a delegated powers report by the council's Director of Public Health.



 Further information is available on the council website, here

If you know anyone facing financial hardship and unable to pay their council tax bill, or needs grant funds to tide them over the crisis, please tell them about the help which may be available.

Yours frugally

Mr Mustard
