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.

Life at Moors Manor Care Home
Sponsored Walk for West Moors Dementia Action Group
Today we had our sponsored walk in the home where residents and staff all joined together to walk the equivalent of The Three Peeks Challenge! Staff were on that treadmill clocking up the miles and residents did laps around the garden. We are raising money for local cause West Moors Dementia Action Group and still collecting donations.
Here are just a few photos throughout the day, and everyone all joined together and had so much.
Quiz Night at Moors Manor
We held our quiz night in the home where we invited residents, families, staff and the community to attend. We had our very own Quiz Master Laura are Home Services Advisor here in the home. Laura was on hand to ask all the questions from the different categories, which had which got everyone's thinking caps going. It was a fantastic evening where we all had so much and look forward to doing another quiz again soon.
Simon Woodley performs in the home
We had a new performer come to the home the very talented Simon Woodley who played the piano to our residents. What was really lovely was that Simon asked residents for requests which had everyone all requesting some of their favourite pieces which then brought back many memories. It was a very relaxing morning listening to the piano being played so beautifully.
We look forward to Simon coming back again next month.
Eileen's Birthday
We celebrated the lovely Eileen's birthday. Her family with residents and staff all came together for a birthday social where Eileen had a wonderful time.
Happy Birthday Eileen from all at Moors Manor.
Flower arranging with our volunteers
We had our fantastic volunteers Geraldine, Dee and Adele come in to spend the morning with our residents. This time it was a morning of being creative and to do some flower arranging which the ladies did all enjoy. We are very lucky to have these lovely ladies come in to the home and we thank them all for everything they do.
