I am delighted to support National Family Week... By working with 4Children on the new Family Commission, I want to help ensure that families of all backgrounds and sizes get the help they need and are able to make positive choices about the future.

Esther Rantzen, CBE, Broadcaster, Campaigner and Chair of The Family Commission

My family, especially Beatrice and Eugenie are the most important part of my life and I try to spend as much time with them as possible. I believe the key to happy family life is communication; families should listen and talk to each other as much as they can. I fully support National Family Week and think it is a great way of bringing families together.

Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York

I really hope that National Family Week encourages people to take a moment to realise the importance of the people they have around them. Even if you do not have any direct family, friends and colleagues can be great sources of strength. I am in full support of this national initiative and the message that it is spreading.

Amanda Holden, Britain's Got Talent Judge

My Family are the most important thing to me. I am so lucky to have such a marvellous wife, children and grandchildren... I think National Family Week is a great initiative that will encourage families to come together and realise how important every part of the family is.

Sir Terry Wogan, Radio and Television Broadcaster

I would not have been able to achieve half as much as I have without my family support. With a strong family you can achieve anything. I think it is important to make time for family and spend time together, for National Family Week, and every week.

Joe Swash, Actor

Encouraging families to get active is a subject very close to my heart, so I am thrilled and delighted to be able to show my support for National Family Week.
