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
Out & About
We took a trip out out on the minibus to Ilkley with some residents and, as you can see, they really enjoyed it. Ilkley was the finishing point for the Tour De Yorkshire, so the area was decorated with bright bunting and all the shop windows had paintings of bikes in them. It was really fun to ride out.
Preparing for Open Day
We have had another lovely week here at Threshfield court. We have been busy organising our open day on the 21st April. We'll have Liam King singing for us in the morning and the local ukulele band in the afternoon. We are planning on having a lovely buffet lunch and have invited family and friends.
Proud to be rated 'Good'
We are very happy to declare that we have been officially rated as 'Good' by the CQC following an inspection that occurred on 5th December 2017. The report was published on 2nd March 2018 and, as you can see, the staff were ecstatic.
Fun at Threshfield
We have had another lovely week here at Threshfield court.
We were joined by Angela from Music for Health and, as usual, many residents participated and were up dancing and singing away to the music.
We have been busy redoing our notice board on Memory Lane with an 'under the sea' theme.
We have also been out in the countryside on one of our minibus trips.
More Activities at Threshfield
We had our monthly visit from Angela from Music for Health. Many residents participated and were up dancing and singing away to the lively music. In the afternoon, we enjoyed our weekly Peace & Prayer session, which was a lovely service for all who attended.
Later in the week, we held a Knit & Natter session in the café area, where one resident shared her crochet work with everyone else.
We are busy planning for Nutrition & Hydration week, when we will be having afternoon tea on Wednesday with the Trefoil Guild.
Keeping Busy at Threshfield
We have had another lovely week here at Threshfield court.
Geoff Hanson came to sing and play his guitar for us on Wednesday morning and many residents joined in singing and dancing. In the afternoon, we had our weekly peace and prayer service. Also, some of the ladies enjoyed playing giant noughts and crosses.
On Thursday morning, we had our trip out in the minibus to Grimwith Resovoir; it was a lovely sunny day, so we stopped to enjoy some refreshments and watched the local wildlife.
