In 2005 Dr. Hywel Francis MP delivered the Annual Aneurin Bevan Memorial Lecture – ‘The Right to an Ordinary Life: carers and equal opportunities’ – after his role as sponsor of the Carers Equal Opportunities Act 2004, this lecture was sponsored by Community the Union. Dr. Francis reflected on the success of the act explaining that he was particularly to be recalling this achievement in the South Wales Valleys because there are a disprportionate number of carers despite the advances achieved by Aneurin Bevan’s National Health Service. Carers provide, for free, the equivilant of £57 billion worth of care which is about the cost of the NHS.
