LEWISHAM RELIEF IN NEED CHARITY

Whilst the charity makes small grants to individuals and organisations it is primarily engaged in providing sheltered accommodation for the elderly at its almshouse, Lloyd Court.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income was lower than spending in the latest year

Established: 31 years
