James Sunderland backs Carers Leave Bill and praises work of local carers

James Sunderland backs a Bill that would create a new entitlement for employees to take up to a week of unpaid leave a year to provide care for a dependant with a long-term care need and he takes the opportunity to praise the brilliant carers he meets in the Bracknell constituency.

James tells MPs:

“I meet people in the Lexicon, in Bracknell town centre and on my travels, and I am blown away by the charity sector and the sense of community in Bracknell. It is completely unsurpassed by anywhere else I have been, and I am an old boy now, so I have been around a bit. Bracknell is a brilliant place with great people, and I thank everyone in Bracknell who is providing this care for others; it is so important.”
