Summary "Ninth Annual Report of the St. Mary Abbott's, Kensington, Church of England" is a charitable report written in the mid-19th century. The document details the operations and observations of the Kensington Church of England District Visiting Society, particularly focusing on its efforts to aid the poor and improve their conditions both materially and spiritually. This review likely serves not just to inform contributors and parishioners of the Society's activities, but also as a call for increased support amidst decreasing financial contributions. The opening portion of this report outlines the current situation that necessitates the Society's work, revealing a troubling trend of declining charitable contributions even as the impoverished population of Kensington grows. It emphasizes the Society's mission to alleviate distress primarily through promoting self-sufficiency among the poor rather than solely providing direct relief. The text introduces various initiatives and clubs established to foster saving habits among the working-class, alongside a brief statistical analysis of the aid provided and the socio-economic climate in Kensington as observed over the previous years. The Committee appeals to the local population, urging them to reflect on their charity responsibilities and to assist in raising funds to sustain and expand these vital services.
