Relief for charities and non-profit organisations

Information on eligibility and how to apply for relief
 
Piggy bank

The council is able to grant reductions in business rates to some organisations.

Relief for charities

Registered charities and registered community amateur sports clubs (CASCs) are entitled to an 80% reduction on their business rates bill.

We have discretion to make a further reduction to the remaining 20% of the bill.

To apply for relief, complete and return the business rates relief for charities application form.

Non-profit organisations

We can grant relief to non-profit organisations who are philanthropic or religious in nature, or are concerned with education or social welfare.

Applications for grant relief from non-profit organisations are dealt with by our community development team.
