Activities at Threshfield Court Care Home
Here at Threshfield Court, we aim to tailor the activities to meet the needs of individual residents, the communities within the home and the home as a whole. We have regular, structured activities such as visits from Music for Health, specialist armchair exercise facilitators, local musicians and a growing team of volunteers, including our local clergy. We also have time for arts and crafts, all sorts of games, music, poetry and lots more. We are pretty good at being spontaneous too!
Claire Boocock
Hi, my name is Claire Boocock. I come from a background of hospitality and working in the Care Home sector is very new for me but already immense job satisfaction in working with our residents alongside a great team.
I am very excited about this new venture in my career. I am an outgoing person with a big bubbly personality and looking forward to making a big difference to the social well-being of our residents with my flair of creativity and adventure.

Life at Threshfield Court Care Home
Mother's Day
Residents at Barchester Healthcare’s Threshfield Court Care Centre, in Threshfield, celebrated Mother’s Day with Individual vases of flowers for the ladies and a special 3 course meal prepared by our hospitality team. Staff at Threshfield Court Care Centre arranged flowers for every resident, music and a special 3 course meal at lunch time. Chef at the home, Karl Phillips prepared a special menu of Roast beef and Yorkshire Puddings followed by one of their favourite puddings, sticky toffee pudding! To mark the day.
Spring sunshine
What a beautiful day for a minibus trip to Redcar Tarn, just above Keighley. Our volunteer mini bus driver David, took us to look at the bird life and feed the ducks. We all had a cup of tea and a biscuit whilst watching the lovely bird life and people enjoying the lovely weather and walking around the Tarn”.
Book corner with Angela Cobbin
We had a lovely time joining Angela Cobbin for a theatre-inspired virtual talk about her book ‘My Name is Not Wigs’. ‘My Name Is Not Wigs’ is the ultimate read for fans of witty behind-the-curtains memoirs, especially those with a penchant for the bright lights of stage and screen: tears and accolades aplenty!
St Patrick's Day
Today we celebrated St Patrick’s Day in recognition of the patron saint and national apostle of Ireland. The home was decorated with shamrocks and we all enjoyed exploring the Irish culture through a variety of themed activities.
World Poetry Day
Here at Threshfield Court our residents were keen to get involved in World Poetry Day.
Throughout the day, we had interesting discussions about poets and we hosted a Poetry Club where our residents listen to famous people reading poems and read aloud passages from their own favourite poems.
World Poetry Day is a fantastic excuse for us all to spend the day with our noses in our much-loved poetry books.
It was a great day for everyone, especially for the keen poets at the home.
