Josephine Butler: Victorian Social Reformer & Feminist
Josephine Butler campaigned for education and justice for women. She was ahead of her time but remains a largely unknown figure.
The Josephine Butler Memorial Trust, based in Liverpool, seeks to promote awareness of Josephine Butler and how her Christian faith and commitment to service drove her in her social justice campaigns.
The Trust is a Charity registered in England and Wales. Charity Number: 220923.
“Josephine Butler is considered to be the most beautiful woman in the world; she is very clever and a great speaker; but she has done herself a great deal of harm by violently taking up a subject which had better be left alone, by ladies at any rate”
- Prince Leopold, Son-in-Law of Queen Victoria
