Activities at Moors Manor Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.
Our activities team are great at building the activities programme around the likes and interests of the people we care for. Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure is part of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat are always welcomed.

Life at Moors Manor Care Home
Gardening club
What a beautiful day it was as our garden club rolled up their sleeves and planted a brand-new herb garden! From mint and rosemary to basil and thyme, our residents are excited to grow fresh herbs that will not only brighten up our garden but also add flavour to our meals! ️
It was a wonderful time of teamwork, laughter, and learning as we shared gardening tips and enjoyed the outdoors together. We can’t wait to see our little garden flourish and can already smell the fresh herbs in the air!
A big thank you to everyone who helped make this green-thumbed project come to life!
Bee Keeping talk with Boris
We had the pleasure of welcoming our chef Boris and his son into the home as he is a beekeeper, for an insightful and educational talk about the fascinating world of bees! The residents were captivated as they learned about the importance of bees to our environment, how hives work, and even some cool facts about honey production!
It was a wonderful opportunity to not only share knowledge but to also connect with nature in a way that brought joy and curiosity to everyone. Thank you to Boris for bringing the buzz to our day and inspiring us all to think more about the incredible little creatures that keep our world buzzing!

Minibus outing to Haskins
Our wonderful residents Marianne, Sheila, Kathy and Robert had the pleasure of visiting Haskins Garden Centre, and what a refreshing experience it was! From the vibrant flowers to the peaceful greenery, everyone enjoyed soaking in the fresh air and the beauty of nature.
It was heartwarming to see so many smiles as we strolled through the garden, taking in the sights and sounds around us. Laughter, relaxation, and great conversations filled the air as we shared the joy of being outdoors.
A big thank you to the lovely staff at Haskins for welcoming us with open arms and creating such a serene space for us to enjoy. We can’t wait for our next adventure together!
Andy performs with his accordion
What a beautiful day in the garden we had earlier in the week! Residents were treated to the soulful sounds of Andy and his accordion, filling the air with sweet melodies as the sun shone down. There's nothing like live music to brighten spirits and bring joy to everyone. A perfect afternoon of music, laughter, and sunshine!
Minibus outing to local church singalong
What a beautiful sunny day to get out and enjoy the music! Our wonderful residents gathered today for a heartwarming community singalong at St Martin's United Reformed Church in West Moors. It was such a joy to see everyone come together, sharing their voices and smiles in the sunshine.
