Charitable relief

You could get charitable rate relief if your property is mainly used for charitable purposes.

To be eligible, the property must be used by either:

• a charity, or the trustees of a charity
• a community amateur sports club (CASC)

Charitable rate relief gives you up to 80% off your business rates bill.

We may also be able to top up the discount so that you do not have to pay business rates. This is called ‘discretionary relief’.

Not-for-profit organisations can apply for discretionary rates relief.  The types of organisations that can benefit from this are: 

• amateur sports clubs and grounds
• community centres and halls
• welfare and educational community centres
• youth organisations
• arts, music, religious and philanthropic groups 

What you’ll get

You could receive up to 100% relief on your business rates bill.

The level of relief given will depend on the type of organisation.
