Conditions in England in the 18th century were tough: the Industrial Revolution had made it harder for people to earn an honest wage as simpler tasks were replaced by machine labour. A single machine, whether it be a sewing machine or a plough used in farming, could replace numerous people. As a result, unemployment rose, and people turned to crime to survive. The theft of basic necessities such as food and clothing was particularly common, and these crimes were committed by men, women and children equally.
Punishment wasn't really "invented" it is actually an instinct for any living mammal to punish when needed. The forms of punishment were the ways that were invented, but most people do not use the same methods of punishment.
Social reformers such as Dorothea Dix worked to improve conditions in prisons and poorhouses in the 19th century. They advocated for better treatment of inmates and those in poverty, leading to changes in laws and policies that aimed to provide more humane living conditions.
Reformers and activists, such as Elizabeth Fry and Dorothea Dix, worked to address abuses and improve sanitary conditions in correctional facilities during the 19th century. They advocated for better living conditions, healthcare, and rehabilitation programs for prisoners.

Dorothea Dix aimed to reform the treatment of mentally ill individuals within prisons. She advocated for better living conditions, access to mental health treatment, and the establishment of separate facilities for the mentally ill.
