The Poor Law Reform Act was passed in 1834 during the reign of Queen Victoria. She ascended to the throne in 1837, but the Act was a significant piece of legislation enacted just a few years before her coronation, aimed at reforming the system of poor relief in England and Wales. The Act introduced workhouses and aimed to reduce the cost of poor relief.
