How to search for remote working contract opportunites?

Untrue.
Some companies may prefer you in the office.
Some companies are happy for you to work from home. Some actually encourage it.

Indeed but it's still very heavily weighed towards being in the office for now.

I've seen a few ads recently for remote working gigs.

Currently WFH but that was because I was working for someone that shutdown the office to save costs. Once in the past I had a long term gig where after 6 months I was able to negotiate the renewal with two days a week at home and I also worked for a startup that was WFH because nobody has sorted out an office yet.

So it can be done

So true, there's also the official policy vs unofficial policy to consider. My client's (UK bank) general policy is 1 day but this week is have been told unofficially it's don't take the pee. Show your face every so often but wfh if it's appropriate
