Charities, non-profit or voluntary organisations and sports clubs

You could get money off your Business Rates if your property is mainly used for charitable purposes.

To be eligible, the property must be used by either:

  • a charity, or the trustees of a charity
  • a community amateur sports club

If the property is used by a community amateur sports club

To be eligible, your organisation must be registered with HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) as a community amateur sports club.

Find out more about registering as a community amateur sports club.

If you’re not a charity or a community amateur sports club

You may still be able to get money off your Business Rates bill if you’re a non-profit or voluntary organisation.
