Sir Edwin Chadwick
Person Born 1800 Died 1890
Categories: Law, Politics & Administration, Social Welfare
Born Lancashire but brought up in London. A friend of Jeremy Bentham, Bentham dying in his arms. Chadwick's major achievement was the 1842 publication of the Poor Law Commissioners' "Report on the Sanitary Condition of the Labouring Poor". A man of tonsorial elegance, we think you will agree.
