A hamper to the value of £60 will be supplied to every Five Rivers’ Care Leaver. The hamper has been co-designed by our Care Leavers to match their needs as they leave Five Rivers. Each hamper contains over ten ‘basic essential items’, such as household products and the Five Rivers Cookbook full of simple recipes and advice, as well as a choice of luxury items which are selected by each individual young person to go in their own unique hamper.
