I did not know about this until this year. I claimed and now have a 25% discount on my Council Tax and it has enabled me to pay for more help.

Hi jinasc,

Thanks so much for this input. It's what helps to make Healthunlocked such a useful forum for so many people. I certainly hadn't known about this and I bet there are lots of other people who didn't either.

It always seems to be quite hard to ferret out any information that will actually save us some money that can always be readily used elsewhere in caring for someone, so that's brilliant news. I hope that others will follow your advice and do the same thing. Thanks again!
