POTENTIAL adopters for older children and siblings are being sought by Lancashire County Council.

February will see a campaign to remind people there are children of all ages ready for a loving home.

The council is keen to hear from a broad range of prospective adopters, including single people and couples, same-sex and heterosexual, from all religious backgrounds or none.

The only legal requirement is that adopters must be over 21 and live within Lancashire or nearby.
