Activities at Moreton Hill Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

First Bit of Snow
Amazing blue skies and a sprinkle of snow overnight welcomed staff this morning. You can see as far as the black mountains!
Santa's Little Helpers
Santa had some great help delivering presents in the home this year as he was joined by two of his elves! Residents were delighted to see Santa and his elves come into their rooms to deliver their presents.
Winter Wonderland
Moreton Hill created a Winter Wonderland for residents and visitors on Saturday 8th December. Santa welcomed local children in a specially designed grotto decorated by the management team. Barbara and her daughter particularly enjoyed Santa’s visit.
St Joseph's Christmas Carols
Children from St Joseph's School came to sing Christmas carols for the residents in the lead up to Christmas. Everyone had a fantastic time and the residents couldn't help joining in and singing along with the children.
Podiatry Training
Moreton Hill welcomed local nurses into the home for some free podiatry training from a professional. This hands-on session helped them to identify common problems with the foot. Above, 2 local nurses can be seen getting to grips with the examination of feet.
