    LUNESDALE HALL, KIRKBY LONSDALE

    Operation of Lunesdale Hall (previously Kirkby Lonsdale Institute), a public use building for the use of the residents and visitors to the town.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years, despite a decline more recently
    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

    Financial issues to consider:

    • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
