The lives of many of children in Powys could be changed forever this week as Powys County Council kicks off activities for this year’s National Adoption Week, which starts on Monday (November 1).
The council’s Adoption Service is urgently looking for families for a number of across the county including siblings groups, toddlers and older children who are all eagerly waiting for new families.
Karl Sephton, the council’s Adoption Team Manager, said: “Don’t think that we will turn you down because you are aged over 40, don’t own your own home, already have children or are not in a relationship.
“What we really need are people who can offer a child or sibling group a loving and supportive family for life. Initially, we are simply asking people to come forward and find out more about adoption.
“If you think you might have what it takes, please pick up the phone today.”
To find out more about adoption call the Adoption Team on 01874 614030 or come along to one of our events throughout the week. The team will be at the following locations:
- Bear Lanes Newtown, Tuesday 2 November
- Machynlleth, Market, Wednesday 3 November
- Tesco, Llandrindod Wells, Thursday 4 November
- Co-op, Ystradgynlais, Friday 5 November
In addition the team would also like to welcome you to join us at one of our information sessions from 10am to 2pm on Thursday 10 November at the Park Newtown and at Neuadd Brycheiniog, Brecon Wednesday 1 December.
