Housing Benefit and Council Tax Reduction
Housing Benefit is a benefit for people on a low income to help them pay their rent.
Council Tax reduction is for people on a low income to help them pay their Council Tax.
You can apply for these, but the amount you can get will be restricted if you are under 25 and do not have any children.
