The Government publishes a snapshot of the number of Local Council Tax Support claimants in England on a quarterly basis. This data sets out the number of pensioner and working-age claimants at a local authority level, as well as for England as a whole. The Government most recently updated this data on 17 February to reflect the number of claimants as of 31 December 2020. The latest data release is available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/live-tables-on-local-government-finance#local-council-tax-support .
