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!

Life at Moreton Hill Care Home
Winter is Coming
We recently got our first touch of snow here at Moreton Hill.
Moreton Hill Remembers
The residents of Moreton Hill made 100 pottery poppies with Paddy in their pottery class to acknowledge the end of the Great War. Each poppy was handmade and we hope to sell them for £2 each and all the money will go to the British Legion appeal.
Connecting with the Community
Activities Coordinator, Nickie, spent the day in Stroud armed with information about volunteer work and our new 'Tea and a Tour' afternoon. She invited everyone to visit the home so they could see how amazing it is and what we have to offer.
Macmillan Coffee Morning
Residents and staff had lots of fun preparing for our Macmillan Coffee Morning by folding up the raffle tickets ready for the prize draw. We also baked some delicious cakes and managed to raise a total of £138 on day.
Chedworth Roman Villa
We had a great day exploring Chedworth Roman Villa in The Cotswolds. After a very wet and blustery night, the day turned out to be sunny and warm. Russell, our history buff, gave the best tour, and we enjoyed a picnic lunch in the grounds and afternoon tea in the cafe. We definitely intend on returning soon.
Dyrham Park
We visited National Trust's Dyrham Park recently. We had a great afternoon, which was rounded off with a nice meal in a local restaurant.
