Sowerby House has undergone significant improvements, not only to the environment but also new systems and working practices have been introduced to the home, resulting in higher standards of care for all residents.
Sowerby House is a beautiful, Edwardian property that has been converted into a modern residential care home for older people, located in scenic surroundings, on the outskirts of Thirsk.
The home is spacious with lots of communal areas for residents to enjoy daily activities as well as socialising with family and friends, including a large lounge area and dining room overlooking the landscaped garden.
Mealtimes represent an important part of the day and the chef team use fresh ingredients, locally sourced where possible, to provide delicious, nutritionally balanced, seasonal meals.
The group is proud of the reputation they are building in local communities to become the home of choice for residents and staff.

I myself was offered a cup of tea and a sandwich to eat with my friend. The staff were attentive and very friendly.
On leaving I spoke to one of the senior members of staff just to say how happy I was that my relative was here and being cared for by such nice people.
Welcomed with a smile by staff. We were offered a cup of tea or coffee and made to feel welcome. Our friend was treated with kindness and helped to move somewhere more private for our visit.

The home is undergoing a programme of refurbishment, and lots of improvements have been made in the last few months. The management team are doing a great job.
Much decoration has taken place over the last year and now the home is light and airy and very clean.

Marie Adams, Manager at Sowerby House has worked in care for over 13 years. She originally took the role of carer as a temporary role as she wanted to be an advocate to help people get their voices heard. However, as soon as she started working as a carer she loved it and has developed and thrived in the role ever since.
She has gained a wealth of experience providing care and support to older people to enrich their lives. She is passionate about her role, particularly in providing person-centred care to the residents in her care.
