Care leavers Council Tax discount

If you’re aged between 18 and 25, and have recently moved from Luton Council local authority care, you may be entitled to receive some help with your Council Tax bill.

You could receive 100% discount depending on the number of adults living in your property.

What you'll need to provide

You will need to provide evidence with any of the following:

  • passport
  • medical card
  • full UK driving licence
  • birth or adoption certificate

How to apply

Start now

After you've applied for a discount

You must still pay the amount on your Council Tax bill until you hear from us.

If you qualify for the discount, we’ll check every year that you're still entitled to it. 

Backdating your discount

We usually will not backdate a discount because it is almost impossible to verify. We might consider it if you provide strong evidence and our internal checks support the claim.

If your circumstances change

Use our enquiry form to:

  • tell us if your circumstances change in the meantime as this may affect your discount
  • cancel your discount
