Ginn argues that Victorian cultural philanthropy was a response to daunting urban challenges, and should be seen as part of mainstream social work of the time. Focusing on Whitechapel, Mile End and Bermondsey, this study makes an important contribution to Victorian social history and the place of cultural philanthropy within it.
