The following notes will help you in completing the application form.

1. If the organisation is not a registered charity, you should also include documentary evidence to show that its main objectives are charitable. The memorandum and articles of association may be sufficient and should be enclosed.
2. Relief, if granted, will be at 80% of rates charged and will continue from year to year, or until the property ceases to be used for charitable purposes. Relief can also be afforded against unoccupied property rates provided that the ratepayer is a charity and it appears that when next in use the property will be wholly or mainly used for charitable purposes.
