Activities at Moors Manor Care Home
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.
Jo Henderson
Hi, my name is Jo Henderson and I am the Activities Coordinator here at Moors Manor.
I am looking forward to bringing my creative side to the home as I was previously a florist and baker and look forward to us making lots of lovely treats for us all to enjoy.
When at home Jo is a mother to two wonderful daughters and also a pet mum to labrador Marley.
I cannot wait to welcome our residents into their wonderful new home and help to bring smiles, joy and laughter to each day.

Life at Moors Manor Care Home
Jean's special birthday celebrations
We helped Jean celebrate her 80th birthday here in the home. Jean and her family with residents and staff in the home had a wonderful afternoon enjoying the tea party that we hosted to help celebrate Jean's special birthday.
Happy Birthday Jean from all of us here at Moors Manor.
Winter Skin Care Event
We held a winter skincare event in the home with Natural Skin by Lynne. As it's the start of the year and we all want to look after ourselves, what better way than to have a lovely afternoon pampering yourself and also enjoying a cup of tea and cake on the side as well.
Steve performs for Open Day.
We had the wonderful Steve come into the home on Saturday for our Open Day to perform to the residents and visitors that came in. He sang a selection of songs from pop, musicals and old time sing-a-longs. He had everyone singing along and dancing in their seats and as you can see the residents all thoroughly enjoyed themselves. We look forward to Steve coming in again for the homes birthday party next month.
International Flower Day
Today is International Flower Day and what better way to enjoy this than to do flower arranging. The residents really enjoyed creating some beautiful displays for us to put around the home.
International Flower Day promotes the psychological boost that flowers can give people. From growing and nurturing plants and flowers, to gifting flowers to show love and appreciation, and sometimes just the simple act of admiring their beauty - flowers have the power to make someone's day.
Kate from Love to Move class
We really do enjoy when Kate from Love to Move comes to the home for her exercise classes. Exercise here is so much fun and you can see that by the photos but also gave the residents chance to burn off some of those festive treats they had been enjoying over Christmas.
Barchester's Big Quiz
We took part in Barchester's Big Quiz with all the care homes and hospitals across the UK. We scored 28 out of 30 which we were very proud of here at Moors Manor and are now waiting to find out if we won in the region. Fingers crossed for us here in the home.
