Our online Council Tax, Business Rates and Housing Benefit service will be unavailable from 5.00pm on Monday 7 October until 10.00am on Tuesday 8 October, whilst we carry out essential system maintenance. You can still make a payment during this time.

Supported lodgings

If you have a spare room, and want to help a vulnerable young person, you may be able to provide supported lodgings. You will be paid rent for the room you provide, as well as for the support you give. Contact us at supportedlodgings@durham.gov.uk or on 03000 269 291 to find out more.
