Gordon Brown hosted a reception at Downing Street, at which he said:
"I am delighted to support Carers Week. It is a valuable opportunity for organisations across all sectors
to recognise and promote the increasingly important role that carers play in our society.
"I am pleased to say that carers are a higher priority for Government than ever before. We will continue to work closely with the NHS, councils, Jobcentre Plus, employers, schools and the third sector to improve the lives of carers. We want to give carers greater control over their health, wellbeing and working life, and to give them more opportunities to have a life outside of caring."
