Plottie, you should count yourself VERY lucky. in my veiw autumn fruiting rasperies are better in many ways to the summer types and are easier to grow (most types need no staking/support). If you can find out what variety you have - hopefully the neighbour who gave them to you should know.
Soil preparation and planting is no different to summer types, though if you have the space let them have it - they soon bulk up into substantial 'thickets' of canes, and there is no need to cut any canes out except the very weakest ones.
Annual care is simpler to summer varieties, once established just cut all canes down to the ground in late winter. Fruit is produced on the same years growth. For now, plant out, keep watered in dry spells and let them grow and get established.
Good Luck!
