Phoenix Packs
"Some children arrive with everything they own in a bin bag. We make sure that never happens here."
When children enter care, everything is changing. A Phoenix Pack gives them comfort, essentials, and something they don't have to give back.
What is a Phoenix Pack?
A high-quality backpack, thoughtfully filled for a child entering or moving through care. Each pack is tailored to the individual child, from babies to teenagers, ensuring their specific needs are met with care and dignity.
Provided for free of charge.
What's inside?
Every pack includes essentials and comfort items such as:
• New pyjamas and full outfits
• A warm coat or jacket
• New underwear and socks
• Toiletries and hair care essentials
• A blanket or soft comfort item
• A book, game or creative activity
Always packed in a proper backpack or sports bag. Never a bin bag.
Who are they for?
Children and young people who are:
• Entering emergency placements
• Moving between homes
• Returning home or transitioning out of care
• In need of replacement essentials
