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.
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
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.
Andy performs with his accordion
We always look forward to when Andy comes in with his accordion to perform to the residents in the home. Andy took us on a world tour going to every country with his music and songs from each country. Everyone enjoyed Andy's performance and we even had some residents dancing along as well. We look forward to welcoming Andy back to the home.
Darts game
Residents on memory lane enjoyed a game of darts, which is great for the hand eye coordination. Residents here really do enjoy group games and get a bit competitive with one another as well. Christine was our winner and as you can see she looked rather pleased with herself.
New years Day and Jean's 98th Birthday
We had two celebrations in the home New Years Day and Jean's 98th Birthday. Jean and the residents all met in the cafe for a tea party which included a glass of fizz in the afternoon which everyone enjoyed and also got to sing Jean Happy Birthday.
Happy Birthday Jean from all at Moors Manor.
Scrabble with Steve
We do enjoy our visits with Steve and his giant scrabble board. Residents got into two teams and got very competitive to see who can come up with the highest spelling word. It's a great way of getting the thinking caps going and also lots of fun as well.
We look forward to welcoming Steve back on his next visit to the home.
