What was the new poor law like in the Victorian times?

The New Poor Law, enacted in 1834 in Victorian England, aimed to reform the existing system of poor relief by establishing workhouses where the impoverished could receive assistance. It emphasized deterrence, making conditions in workhouses deliberately harsh to discourage reliance on public aid. Families were often separated upon entry, and the law sought to reduce the financial burden on local parishes.
