[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1584457390829{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Dear Community Council,

The Government is advising that people should be “social distancing” to minimise the risk of contracting Coronavirus.  This is important for everyone but especially important for people over the age of 70, those with underlying health conditions and pregnant women.

Applications for benefits and grants can be made online or via telephone.  These include applications for Community Care, Crisis Grants, Housing Benefit and the Council Tax Reduction Scheme or Single Person Discount.  Council Tax payments can also be made online or via telephone.  Bill payers can also set up Direct Debit or report a change of address using these methods.

Perth & Kinross Council are doing all that we can to ensure that people can avoid unnecessary travel whilst still being able to access our services – Please see attached flyer for distribution amongst communities:

Many thanks
