How did the present John Lyons Charity evolve?
In May 1991 a Charity Commission scheme came into effect giving the Governors discretion to apply the income from that endowment for general charitable purposes for the benefit of the inhabitants of the boroughs of Barnet, Brent, Camden, Ealing, Hammersmith & Fulham, Harrow, Kensington & Chelsea, and the Cities of Westminster and London.
