We’re delighted to announce that all of Five Rivers’ residential children’s homes have been officially rated either ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted, the UK’s independent regulator of services for children and young people.

This milestone reflects the our deep-rooted commitment to delivering exceptional care and support to vulnerable children.

With nine homes located across England, the recent Ofsted inspections praised the homes for their strong leadership, dedicated staff, and the positive outcomes achieved for children in their care.

This is a proud moment for everyone at Five Rivers. These ratings are a testament to the passion, professionalism, and tireless efforts of our teams who work around the clock to ensure every child feels safe, supported, and valued”. 

Victoria Elworthy, Head of Residential Services.

The Ofsted reports highlighted the warm and trusting relationships between staff and children, the high standards of safeguarding, and the tailored support that helps young people thrive emotionally, socially, and academically.

“We believe every child deserves the chance to flourish”, added Victoria, “so, to have that belief recognised by Ofsted across all our homes is incredibly rewarding”.
