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!

Life at Threshfield Court Care Home
Aqua Art
The Residents enjoyed a morning of Aqua Art,
This is a brilliant feel good activity which is developed to provide and create mess free art. Activities like this help to maintain independence.
Such a simple activity can provide hours of fun and entertainment.
Music for Health
The residents here at threshfield really enjoy when Richard – Music for Health comes for the afternoon.
This is such a stimulant activity, jammed packed with lots of different activities.
We have singing, dancing, music quiz, opera, it’s an overall fun filled activity which we deeply enjoy.
Wear it Pink Day
On Monday 23rd October Residents and staff here at Threshfield Court help our own Wear it Pink Day to support the awareness for Breast Cancer.
The residents and staff all dressed up in pink.
Even our head chef came in a pink tie to wear with his chef whites! The kitchen made some fabulous oink cupcakes and biscuits and a fabulous cake shaped in the pink ribbon emblem. The home was support by relatives and the community joining us for a coffee and a piece of cake.
We raised a total of £52.50.
I wish to thank everyone who took the time to come and support this breast Cancer Awareness.
Baking Club
Baking at Threshfield Court is a brilliant activity, not only do our residents have fun getting together as a group, chatting while baking. They have the double bonus of eating the finished product at the end. Activities such as baking is a fabulous way or reminiscing and talking to the residents about what they used to bake and cook for their family at home.
Residents reminisce about rationing through the war and how they made a small amount of ingredients go a long way in their household..
A pamper in the salon
Residents love their weekly visits to the Hairdresser, Residents are invited to join us in the café either before or after their visit and we have coffee and cake, we play cards, dominoes, jigsaw puzzles.
It’s a whole home approach and we encourage every resident to come along and join us. It’s a fabulous way to bet our residents talking to one another and sharing stories and just having some good old fun.
Mayfair of Nightingales
Residents across our services had a fantastic time joining Mandy Morrow for a virtual walking tour to learn about the ‘Herstory’ of Mayfair. The Mayfair of Nightingales may be long gone but it still holds a 20th century charm. Birthplace to the late Queen Elizabeth II, home to one of WWII's most decorated female war heroes and a tale of a wealthy Aristocrat and one of France's favourite designers.
We were delighted to take a walk down memory lane and discover stories from one of London's most iconic areas. The experience was truly enjoyed by all.
