Attorneys or families looking after people suffering with dementia or other mental illnesses may be unaware that there can be Council Tax exemptions that may apply to help reduce the costs of the person with dementia.

There are set criteria that have to be met and a formal diagnosis, but this is something to consider if appropriate to try to help reduce living costs. See attached article on the Age UK website about this if of interest.
