The Bishop of Leeds asked a question on the balance between state offerings and charitable support during a discussion on unpaid carers on 15th October 2025:
The Lord Bishop of Leeds: My Lords, many of the children and other young carers, referred to in a previous question, depend on charities. Are the Government content that the balance is right between what the state offers and charitable support?
Baroness Blake of Leeds: The right reverend Prelate raises a very good point. These issues are at the centre of all the discussions that are going forward to make sure we get the right balance, that everyone who has a say gets an opportunity to be heard, and that we get a much better package of support for all the unpaid carers who need it.
