Benefits
Housing and Council Tax Benefits are paid to people on low income who are liable to pay rent or council tax.

Council Tax
Council Tax is payable in respect of all dwellings, unless exempt. There is one bill per dwelling, whether it is a house, flat, maisonette, mobile home or houseboat, and whether it is owned or rented.

Electoral Services
Voting is a most important way to make your voice heard on the issues that concern you. It is central to the way in which our democracy works.

Environmental Protection
The Environmental Protection Division is comprised of four sections, the Health & Pollution Section, the Commercial Section, the Licensing Section and Recycling Section. Environmental Protection also includes the Internal Council Municipal Safety role.

Housing
If you are in need of housing then we have provided details of how to find accommodation in the Borough and how to apply to go on our Housing Register. The provision of additional affordable housing is a key priority for us. If you want to know what plans we have to increase and improve housing in Runnymede these are outlined in our Housing Strategy.
