The Contribution to Change of Attitudes Toward the Poor by Charles Booth, William booth, Dr. T. Barnardo and Seebohm Rowntree

Charles Booth, William Booth, T. Dr. Barnardo and Dr. Seebohm Rowntree are changing the contribution to the attitude of the poor. In the early 19th century, if you are a poor, most people think it's their fault It was. People are willing to donate money to charities they think are worthwhile, they only oppose paying rising low interest rates. But in the nineteenth century people started some charity movements and had a great impact on the poor.

A study by Charles Booth and Seebohm Rowntree at the beginning of the 20th century showed that 25% of the population is endowed with poverty. They discovered that at least 15% of people live on a survival level. They have enough money to buy food, rent, fuel and clothes. They can not afford "luxury goods" like newspapers and public transportation. Approximately 10% of people live below self-sufficiency levels and can not afford to buy enough food. (Charles Booth announced 17 volumes of life and labor for the people of London from 1902 to 2003. A bad study on urban life of Seebohm Rowntree was announced in 1901.

At the turn of the century, Seebohm Rowntree, inspired by the booth, conducted an investigation of York. It showed that about a third of Yorkshire people lived in poverty. An explanation about poverty in Rowntree is enough to strengthen the booths and states that "One third of the country's urban population lives in poverty". Following the footsteps of Booth and Rowntree, a survey was conducted throughout the UK, "rediscovery of poverty" was added, and social programs such as "Old Age Pension Act" (1908) and "National Insurance Act" (1911) Was born. 1946 Foundations of the modern welfare state of England

Britain's poverty rate was abnormally high in the 19th century, and social research by Charles Booth and Seebohm Rowntree revealed poverty. According to reports, one quarter of the population lives in poverty. Charles Booth's survey "The lives and labor of the people of London" shows that 30% of East London's population is below the poverty line. This means that people can not afford the fundamentals of food, clothing and rent. The study of Seebohm Rowntree emphasizes poverty by showing that about 28% of York is in poverty. In both surveys, we found that the poverty factors are elderly, low wages, unemployment, and diseases. It is mainly pointed out that it is not due to poor people. College settlement movement began in the late 1800s, but it was strengthened in the early 1900s. The solution is to make the richer and poorer live closer and the settlements are in poor areas.
