WHITBY LITERARY AND PHILOSOPHICAL SOCIETY

Owns and manages Whitby Museum in North Yorkshire, which includes a Library and Document Archive, on behalf of the people of Whitby.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
