We're looking for a new generation of adopters to transform the lives of children in need of loving, permanent homes.

Residents are invited to attend a special event to find out more about adoption in Leicestershire.

 The informal information evening is being held from 6.30pm – 8pm on Tuesday, 18 July at County Hall in Glenfield, and will encourage more parents to open their homes to children for life.

The event will provide the opportunity to learn about the adoption process, meet and talk to current adopters as well as the council’s adoption team and find out how adopting can change your life and the lives of children in care.

 To find out more, call 0116 305 3051 or drop us an email
