As we go into 2026 we are refreshing our wishing tree. Every resident has / will be asked what their wish is or what they wish to do in the hope Kings Court can grant their wish.
We have a various range of wishes already and visiting the seaside is proving quite popular so hopefully we can arrange another trip like last year and fullfill those wishes.

✨️✨️✨️✨️Thank you✨️✨️✨️✨️
In November Simon from move it or lose it did some fund raising to help residents from Kings Court and Charles Dickens to have a christmas party.
At King's Court we had already had our christmas celebrations booked so we thought maybe a party in January.
We are holding a silent disco ( more information to follow) and residents are having fish and chips from the local chip shop out of the amazing £558 Simon kindly donated to us.
Thank you again Simon we really do appreciate your generosity and hopefully join us at the silent diaco.

Kings Court care home is in the centre of the attractive town of Barnard Castle in County Durham.

We provide specialist residential and respite care for older people, as well as a day club and a home meal delivery service. We take pride in delivering flexible, personalised and innovative care.

Residents are at the heart of everything we do. The activities we organise are tailored to their needs and interests, and we organise activities, outings and events that will appeal to them. We’re also active in the close-knit community of Barnard Castle and take part in local craft fairs as well as groups like the WI. We love the exclusive performance that the Barnard Castle Players - a local theatrical group – give us twice a year before their show opens at the theatre.

Our historic building used to be the King’s Head hotel. Charles Dickens once stayed here and even mentioned it in ‘Nicholas Nickleby’. The hotel ballroom is now our residents’ lounge and many of our bedrooms are generously sized too.
