I heard people on the TV saying 'We'll continue to support people in need'.
Can I use this sentences instead?
1 We'll continue supporting people in need.
2 We'll carry on supporting people in need.

1 We'll continue supporting people in need.
2 We'll carry on supporting people in need.
They're both grammatically correct and mean the same as the original.
