MISS ROWLANDSON'S ALMSHOUSES
We look after 6 almshouses which are primarily available to people over 55 years of age who live within the four parishes surrounding Grayrigg or who have a connection with those parishes. In exceptional circumstances the almshouses are available to people who live outside the area of benefit and who have no connection with the parishes.
Financial health, per its FY2024 accounts
The accounts state that the properties have been occupied for the year and ongoing maintenance was carried out to keep them in good structural condition. The trustees' policy is to increase reserves from accumulated income while spending what is necessary on property maintenance. No funds are materially in deficit.
