Activities at Moors Manor Care Home

Our residents thoroughly enjoyed planting our sunflower seeds this week. Each has a named pot so they can watch whose grows quickest. It was lovely to see smiles and laughter.

We were delighted with an unexpected visit from the Tour de Barchester Cycle ride visited Moors Manor this morning. They were very grateful for the Lemon drizzle and cup cakes before heading off on the next leg of their incredible journey cycling throughout the South over four long days to raise money for the Barchester Foundation.

As part of National Carers' week we have bought lots of chocolate to treat all our amazing care staff every day when they come to work. Chocolate always puts a smile on their faces. Thank you all for all your hard and dedicated work.

This weeks Bingo was very competitive and Bibesh had to work hard to keep the group on top of the challenge. This interactive game is enjoyed by so many of our residents and the prizes of chocolates always go down a treat!

A huge congratulations to Bibesh, our Activities Coordinator for winning Employee of the month (May). Bibesh has only been with us for a few months and has made a huge impact on the lives of our residents already. He recently did the impossible and found the very car that resident Lloyd had owned some 40 years previously. They were reunited and it was an amazing day that meant the world to Lloyd. Thank you so much for being enthusiastic, caring and brilliant.

Our community cafe is growing in West Moors and each time I go we make new friends. Everyone has a few laughs and the cake is always central to our conversation. Support in the community is essential for our wellbeing and it is a joy to take part in.
