Accessible summary • There is a new National Family Carer Network putting the views across of family carers. • They believe family carers have often been given a bad name. • Family carers now have more places on the Learning Disability TaskForce, but will it do any better than before? • New laws about who can make decisions will help, if they don't imply that parents are always bad. • The future for the Network is unclear.
