What the charge includes
The figures are Lambeth Council’s published totals, which include Lambeth Council’s published 2026/27 rate plus the Greater London Authority precept; we added the two official figures together because Lambeth’s page lists its own share only.
Band D breakdown:
- Lambeth Council: £2,047.11
- Greater London Authority: £510.51
Your own bill can be lower after the 25% single person discount, Council Tax Reduction or other discounts, and higher if a parish precept or a premium applies.
