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
Cycling to Buckingham Palace
Our staff, residents and professional friends static cycled 107 miles from our home to Buckingham Palace today in time for the kings coronation. We raised £350 for Dementia Action, a local community group that assists with dementia. A fantastic day, we enjoyed singing, clapping and healthy beverages to help us along the way. Lester Aldridge our partner also joined in the cycle and generously donated to a really worthy cause.
