We are aware of the government's announcement that households living in properties in Council Tax bands A to D will receive an energy payment to provide support with energy bills this winter.

We are awaiting further information from the government about how the scheme will operate and will provide more information to residents as soon as full details are available.

If you’re not sure which Council Tax band your home is in, you can find it in the top section of your council tax bill, next to 'Property Band', or you can check online at Where I Live.
