Reliefs 
 

The amount of business rates you have to pay could be reduced if you qualify for any one of a number of reliefs that are available. 

Some of these are mandatory and some are awarded on the discretion of Castle Morpeth.

You may qualify for a relief if you are:-

  • A small business.
  • A Charity or Community Amateur Sports Club.
  • A non-profit making organisation.
  • A rural business.
  • A business suffering hardship.

Full details including qualifying criteria and application forms can be found by navigating the menus on the left had side.

These reliefs apply to occupied properties. If your property is empty please see the section on empty property reliefs.
