Council Tax and Benefits

Council tax is collected by your council. It helps to meet the cost of local services and also to pay for the Greater London Authority who run the fire brigade, police and other London-wide organisations. There will be one council tax bill for each domestic property whether it is owned, rented or empty.

Southwark Council in partnership with Liberata provide an excellent benefits service to help people meet their housing costs. Find out more information on housing and council tax benefits, including how to claim.
