    THE GRIFFIN ALMSHOUSES 

    Maintaining three almshouses
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently
    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

    Financial issues to consider:

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