Charity's call to councils over tax
Western Daily Press
|November 08, 2025
MARIE Curie is calling for more councils in England to exempt terminally ill people from council tax.
-
The charity has already secured commitments from 16 councils to drop the tax for people at the end of their lives and hopes more will follow.
Manchester City Council introduced council tax relief in the summer, followed by Barnsley, which brought in the change last month.
Councils in Bristol, Salford and Preston have also made commitments, with schemes expected to go live soon.
