Wiltshire proposes a 4.99% council tax rise, matching the national cap, to fund adult social care.
Wiltshire’s proposed 4.99% council tax rise for 2026–27 matches the national maximum allowed without a referendum, aligning with 119 other English councils.
The budget passed with support from Independent and Labour councillors, despite a competing Conservative-backed plan with the same increase.
While some councils seek higher hikes or are freezing local taxes, Wiltshire will add an adult social care precept—a voluntary levy set by government limits—to help fund care services, which may raise total bills even if local council tax remains unchanged.
