Council tax and water bills are among the climbing costs to be aware of in April
The cost of living crisis is far from over as struggling households faced an unexpected rise in inflation in February, which went against economic forecasts. Data from the Office for National Statistics showed a rise in the Consumer Prices Index in February, up to 10.4% from 10.1% in January.
Council tax The majority of council tax payments will increase by 5 per cent in April, but this may vary depending on where you live. It comes after a change in rules has allowed councils to raise their tax prices by up to 5 per cent without a referendum. However, your provider will determine how much your bills will rise by. Water firms say that the increase is partly driven by higher energy bills, pointing out that water suppliers consume 2% of UK electricity.
NHS dental charges The fee for dental procedures on the NHS will increase by 8.5% from April 24. A band 1 treatment like a check-up will increase from £23.80 to £25.80, a band 2 like a filling will increase from £65.20 to £70.70, and a band 3 like dentures will increase from £282.80 to £306.80.
