Need to actually apply? We'll prepare the whole application.

This scheme is already live β€” an unlicensed property in a designated area is an offence now, not later.

Our Licence Application Pack works out exactly which scheme covers your specific address, the real fee breakdown and discounts you can claim, every document the council's own form asks for, and the submission link and deadline β€” delivered as one dated, ready-to-submit pack.
