Payment free weeks

Information on when the payment rent weeks lie each year

Rent payment is always due in advance. Please be aware that some tenancy types may not have payment free weeks. Your tenancy agreement will explain whether you do or not have them.

This year is slightly different

There are 52 weeks in a normal year, but every five to six years, there are 53 Mondays in a year instead. This next financial year, starting Monday 1 April 2024, is one of those years.

If you normally pay rent for 48 weeks a year, you will have 49 weeks to pay this year. Of the 53 weeks in the 2024/25 rent year, four are ‘rent free’ weeks and 49 are payable weeks, as you can see from the rent calendar below.

If you normally pay rent for 52 weeks a year, you will have 53 weeks to pay this year.

You may be able to get help with your rent through Housing Benefit or Universal Credit. Find out more about this here. We offer a number of different ways to pay your rent, including our customer portal – MyGUHG.

If you’d like a paper copy of our rent calendar, you can download one here. Alternatively, if you don’t have access to a printer, contact us and we’ll send one out to you.
