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
Andy performs with his accordion
We had very talented Andy back again with his accordion to perform to our residents in the home and what a fun afternoon we had. He took us on a trip around the world playing songs from various countries which had everyone singing along too. Afterwards he then went to one of residents in their rooms to play a special song just for him.
We love having Andy come to us and can't wait for him to come again.
Susan's Birthday
We helped celebrate the lovely Susan's special day with us. We always like to make a big fuss for our residents birthdays so we laid on a birthday social for her to enjoy.
Happy Birthday Susan from everyone at Moors Manor.
Halloween preperations
Residents have started to get into the spooky spirit by decorating our pumpkins which we have displayed around the café in the home. Jo our activities coordinator wanted to do something a little bit different this time so went into the garden and collected different leaves and flowers which residents then used to stick onto the pumpkins. Residents did a fantastic job and I think you will all agree how great they look.
Minibus outing to Haskins
This week’s minibus outing was a trip to Haskins Garden Centre to have a look at the wonderful Christmas displays they had in store. Residents were admiring the different looks on the Christmas Trees and getting ideas for when we do the Christmas Trees here in the home.
They then finished the trip with a cup of tea and cake in their café and all had a lovely chat together.
Visit from Sky the dog.
We had the lovely sky come and visit our residents this week in the home. Sky hasn't been able to come for a little while so residents were very pleased to see her and give her a little bit of love and attention. Residents were all sharing their stories about pets they used to have, so we are very lucky to welcome our furry friends into the home.
Marjorie's 97th Birthday
