A Social Enterprise caring for children in need of specialist foster care, residential care and education.
About us
Five Rivers is a Social Enterprise that looks after children who need specialist care and education. We offer five key services: 1. Fostering Our experienced social work teams train and support our diverse community of Foster Carers so they can offer stable, loving homes for children who cannot live with their birth parents. 2. Education Our specialist teaching teams provide care and tailored education to children who are struggling in mainstream schools. Our therapeutic framework promotes emotional growth, personal development and academic attainment. 3. Residential Our integrated care teams offer trauma-informed care to children in our specialist residential homes. Our care staff are supported by a team of experienced clinicians to provide our research-based model of care Attachment and Trauama Informed Care (ATIC™) 4. Clinical Services All our work is psychologically informed. Highly trained clinicians work with our Foster Carers, Social Workers, Teachers and Residential Care staff to help them provide the best support to children. 5. Crisis Intervention We provide therapeutic interventions to children and families in crisis. We have been providing specialist children's services since 1989. We focus on employee engagement and well-being, achieving excellent outcomes for children by investing in our people. This is just one of the reasons why we hold a Gold accreditation with Investors In People. As a Social Enterprise, we are a dynamic, ethical organisation committed to giving back. We invest in people, projects, research and training. We go the extra mile, making a difference to the children we care for and the communities they grow up in. We measure our success by the positive impact we have on lives, rather than the profit we make for shareholders. Visit our website to find out more www.five-rivers.org
