Retail Hospitality and Leisure Relief 2025
How do I apply?
Due to the cash cap and subsidy allowance criteria we have not applied Retail Hospitality and Leisure Relief to all bills.
If you believe you qualify email Brates@guildford.gov.uk. Add 'Retail 2025' to the email the heading.
Provide the following in the email:
- your account reference (beginning with X found on the top right of your bill)
- details of the properties you are applying for
- confirm the use of each property
- confirmation of the capacity in which you are applying for the relief. (For example, sole trader, managing director, chief accountant, partner)
- declarations that:
- My business will not exceed the £110,000 cap for all properties in England
- My business will not exceed Subsidy Control Act thresholds by receiving more than £315,000 in total of Minimal Financial Assistance over three years (including 2025/26))
