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
Baking Club
Residents love their baking club and this time we made yoghurt bark. Residents had fun chopping up and adding the fruit and chocolate to the yoghurt bark. Later on they all got to enjoy them with a cup of tea and of course had a good knatter as well.
Knit and Knatter club
Our ladies do love the knit and knatter club that we have in the home. It's a great excuse for everyone to come together to do a hobby that they have done for many years and also see how everyone is and catch up on the gossip too. We look forward to seeing what our ladies create with their knitting as the year goes on!
Christmas Day 2024
Merry Christmas from everyone here at Moors Manor
We have had a lovely day so far opening presents, drinking the sherry and Baileys before our wonderful Christmas Lunch. Here are a few photos from this morning.
We hope you all have a wonderful day too with your families.
Christmas Day preperations
Residents enjoyed making favours which were then placed on all the tables on Christmas Day for everyone to enjoy an extra treat with their lunch. It was lovely for everyone to create the reindeers and you can see lots of fun took place while making them.
The Curiosity Case
We had Claire from The Curiosity Case with her case and of course for December there was only one theme and that of course was "Christmas" Residents were able to look at Christmas Cards and Ornaments. We have really enjoyed Claire coming in with her case each month to see what each theme will be, we will look forward to what she brings in January.
Getting crafty making bath bombs
Residents had an enjoyable afternoon getting crafty by making bath bombs with Lexy from Made By Me Craft Parties Residents were able to choose the fragrances that they wanted and then were able to then have a relaxing spa bath here in the home. We look forward to Lexy coming in again next year to bring more crafting fun for the residents to enjoy.
