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

Activities Coordinator

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.

Elf Day

Elf Day was created to sprinkle some festive cheer on fundraising towards finding a cure for dementia, launched by the Alzheimer’s Society, a charity we are very happy to support. We celebrated with an Elf Quiz with staff and residents and Caroline and Michelle went out and delivered mince pies to the local NHS services.

Christmas Switch on

To celebrate our first Christmas we asked our founder resident to do the honours of switching on our Christmas lights. 

We all got together and sang songs, enjoyed mulled wine/cider and started on the mince pies. 

Winter Wonderland

We took a lovely trip to Stewarts at Broomhill, the residents went through the Winter Wonderland and got to have a nice chat with Father Christmas.

Beach Ball Fun
