Take part in a landmark Government consultation on proposals to replace Surrey's current councils with up to three larger authorities. We support a three unitary approach - Find out more and read our consultation question guide.

Join us for a special online engagement session hosted by the Leaders of Guildford and Waverley Borough Councils on Thursday 3 July from 7pm to 8pm via Microsoft Teams. We'll explain what Local Government Reorganisation is, outline the different options being considered, and show you how to get involved. Sign up for the session (opens new window).

Students and spouses

Student nurses

If you are a student nurse you may qualify for a council tax reduction.

You're counted as a student nurse for council tax purposes if:

  • you're a nursing or a midwifery student. This includes those those on pre-registration undergraduate courses and post-registration health visitor training
  • you're taking a course which leads to registration under the Nurses, Midwives and Health Visitors Act 1997

Student nurses taking traditional hospital-based training do not count as students.

You need to have a MyGuildford account to apply for this discount.  If you do not have a MyGuildford account you can set one up. ​
