Jacqui, Leeds Customer Care Team, who are we?
Take a video tour of our care home
Discover everything you need to know about our home with our latest video tour. It’ll give you an overview of our home, from the care we provide to the facilities on offer, with photography of the bedrooms and living areas too.
Kindness, dignity and respect are at the heart of what we do
Situated near Newbury, Thatcham Court warmly welcomes every new resident with a moving-in basket. And to ensure we always know about their ideas and concerns, we have a residents committee.
Great places to socialise, enjoy an activity or have quiet time
This purpose-built home has been designed to be dementia friendly from top to bottom. This helps residents to feel safe, move around the home more easily, and have opportunities for stimulation and enjoyment.
Recreating familiar settings
We have our own Betty’s Café and Albert’s Bar, plus wallpapers and painted fences to simulate outdoor scenes, gardens, beaches, and libraries.
Places to welcome and entertain children
All of the lounges have a children’s play corner, and there’s a children’s play area outside. This makes it a pleasure for grandchildren to visit, and for the residents to enjoy watching them play.
A dedicated activities room
Creativity is stimulating – our own activities room means residents can enjoy getting stuck into arts and crafts in the perfect environment.
There’s no typical day at Thatcham Court, but we arrange plenty to do, both here at the home as well as out and about.
Encouraging residents’ creativity
We help our residents get involved with gardening, knitting, pottery, art, and cooking. All of this helps residents to make the home that bit more special.
A variety of outings for all interests
We’ve held trips to the zoo, farms, steam trains, army flying museum, and football matches. Residents always get to choose where we go.
Making dreams come true
We think it’s #NeverTooLate so wherever we can, we help residents to achieve something from their ‘bucket list’.
"The service was exceptionally well-managed. There was a very positive workplace culture, which ensured the care provided was to excellent standards. We observed people's support was very caring. Relatives, commissioners and professionals described the service as very caring and staff as kind. Without exception, people were routinely treated with dignity and respect."
"My mum is treated really well, and I feel reassured that her well-being is top of their priority. The staff are amazing, kind and thoughtful and put on many activities to keep all the residents happy, busy and stimulated. The grounds of the home are beautifully kept, and it is always a pleasure to walk around them. I really enjoy the days when families are encouraged to go in and join in the fun. It is so lovely to see staff, residents and their families spending time together and having a good time. I would recommend Thatcham Court to anyone looking to find a place where the care is first-rate, and it feels like a family while you are there."

"I come in every Wednesday to visit my lovely Mum. She was in the lounge which was full of residents. Some of them are normally sitting quietly when I visit, but on this day the colourful sheet came out and the lounge was alive with laughter, smiles and residents participating with laughter. Pure joy! "
Daughter of Resident, 17th August 2023, carehome.co.uk
"We have been so pleased with the care since Mum came here in January. Everyone has been helpful and shown compassion. Our only slight sadness is that no one has been able to persuade Mum to sit in her chair. We used to get her at home and she was so much better. All good! Thank you. "
