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.

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.

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
Walter and the male voice choir
It is always lovely when you have residents that come to the home that talk about their hobbies and interests that they still do now.
We recently had Walter stay with us for respite and when talking with the team he mentioned he was a member of a male choir. Last week Walter and the choir came into the home and sang a selection of songs which were amazing and enjoyed by everyone.
We look forward to Walter and the choir coming again into the home.
Yoga with Bibesh
Exercise really is so very important and here at Moors Manor we have a variety of different exercise classes for residents to enjoy. Here residents are enjoying some yoga which are very own Activities Coordinator Bibesh was running. Residents at the end felt very relaxed and ready for the day ahead.
Creating Mandala artwork
Art can be very relaxing and therapeutic, we have our very own art group here at Moors Manor. Residents all enjoyed creating their very own Mandala art work. The colour and detail that went into each piece was wonderful and residents were all talking about the different types of artwork that they used to do.
Local Ukulele Group performs in the home
We had the wonderful Carol Rice and her Ukulele group come in to the home to perform a variety of songs that the residents and staff all tapping their toes too.
As you can see from the one of the photos residents were singing and dancing along as well.
A very enjoyable afternoon and we look forward to them coming in again.
Giant jenga in the garden
Who doesn't love a game of Giant jenga in the garden on a beautiful sunny day. Marjorie is delighted to have carefully removed two pieces from the stack without it tumbling down.
