Stay safe in very hot weather

Very hot weather is expected for the next few days. A red heat-health alert (the highest level) is in place for London on Wednesday and Thursday.  

Hot weather can be dangerous and can cause serious illness. Stay safe and look out for others who may be particularly vulnerable to the heat. Read advice on GOV.UK

Cool spaces

There are local cool spaces that are free and open to everyone. Visit them to rest, drink water and stay cool. Find a cool space near you

Access Islington hubs 

North and South Access Islington hubs are closed due to the hot weather. The Central Hub is open for urgent, in-person support, until 4pm today (Wednesday 24 June) but avoid travelling unless it is essential. 

You can still access our services online and you can call us on 020 7527 2000 if you need to speak to someone.

Paying on time

It is really important that you pay your council tax on time. If you pay late then you will be sent a reminder letter. If you continue to pay late then you will lose your right to pay in instalments.  

Please remember that depending on your payment method it can take several days for the money to reach us.

If you pay late then you will be sent a reminder letter. If you continue to pay late then you will lose your right to pay in instalments.

If you want to make sure that the money gets to us on time each month then you may wish to consider setting up a Direct Debit. You can then choose one of four dates for your payments to go out on each month.
