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
Community Café
We welcomed some members of our local community in for our monthly community cafe which launched today, lots of good conversations over tea and sweet treats - good luck to the ladies who took our word wheel away to complete - I hope one of you gets the long word!
Look forward to seeing you all next month.
Film Afternoon
What better way to spend a afternoon when the weather has turned grey than watch a film with some snacks. Our lovely carer Sam, along with the rest of the team created a lovely afternoon for our residents in our cinema room. The residents opted to watch Gosford Park for a little bit of mystery, drama and comedy all in one.
Film Afternoon is a popular choice here at Moors Manor becoming a weekly event - I can't wait to see what's next weeks choice is!
Wine Tasting
Our residents had the opportunity to try a variety of wines, from sparkling and white to rose and red, with a virtual event talking about the wines, their history and tasting techniques. It was a wonderful experience, enjoyed by all.
Roald Dahl Day
The team at Moors Manor celebrated some of the most cherished and well known Roald Dahl stories. Staff at the home took part in the day by dressing up in their favourite Roald Dahl character costumes.
Josephine judged the competition and voted Sarah as Witch number 1 the residents favourite. The team chose Miss Honey and Matilda as their favourite, with Mrs Bucket a close second.
Joan, resident at Moors Manor, said, “All the staff in their costumes really made me laugh today and brightened up my Monday morning."
National Dog Day!
Staff and residents got up close and personal with some furry friends when they celebrated all the wonderful things about man’s best friend on National Dog Day.
Residents had a brilliant time with the dogs from Caring Canines in our lovely garden.
One resident commented, "We have had such a nice day watching the dogs do their show and getting to stroke them and see them up close. They are all such characters!"
High Tea at Moors Manor!
To celebrate National Cream Tea day, Moors Manor brought out the finish local jam's and cream's to adorn our freshly baked scones, courtesy of our hospitality team.
Our resident's dolloped on the fruity jam, and enjoyed lashings of fresh clotted cream in our beautiful gardens, under the warm afternoon sun!
