Activities at Trinity Manor Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

Having more than 10 years of professional experience in multiple sectors at different places have given me the confidence to get involved in any challenging environment where my skills and experience will be instrumental in achieving personal and social goals.
Being a motivator and influencer to the people around me has always been my passion, and also part of my profession. As an Activity Coordinator, my ultimate goal is to transfer my energy and spread my happiness.
Being active and full of energy with humbleness is what defines me and transferring that energy to the people around me has been my prime interest.

Life at Trinity Manor Care Home
Congratulations, Ligy!
We are delighted to announce that the next Employee of the Month is...
Ligy Jose!
Congratulations, Ligy!
This is someone with an exceptional work ethic and is truly a fantastic carer. We have been thrilled to welcome Ligy into the Trinity Manor family a few months ago and she has really become a fabulous addition to our team. Ligy cannot do enough for anyone and works incredibly hard, each and every shift, to ensure that she is doing her utmost to ensure those for whom she cares are very well taken care of indeed. Ligy is not also a great support to others in her team, but also to the families & friends of the home too. Keeping her calm in every situation, Ligy is definitely someone we should all aspire to be more like.
Thank you, Ligy, for your hard work and passion for the job - It has clearly not go unnoticed!

A Familiar Face!
How wonderful it was to see friend of the home, Jo Maidment, today, as she stopped by the home to not only visit with one of our residents, but also she delivered some special gifts...
We originally met Jo in the capacity of one of the members of The Soroptimists from Yeovil, Sherborne & district group, who kindly donated a tree to be planted in our garden last year, in recognition of their 100th anniversary and she has been since been a visitor to see some of our residents who she befriended.
Jo very kindly brought with her to our home, some wonderful handmade twiddle blankets for some of our Memory Lane residents to enjoy, made by residents from other care facilities locally and finished off with the twiddle bits by one of her fellow Soroptimists.
Thank you, Jo, what a kind gift - Our residents will love them!
Pictured is Jo showing one of her blankets and also Home Services Advisor, Rebekah, taking delivery of them.
Our Friends are Back!
It's always such a wonderful atmosphere when our lovely friends from Leweston School come for a visit...
Recently our lounge was a hive of activity and chatter as residents and students enjoyed a good old fashioned natter, really getting to know one another - Where they are from, what they are studying, hobbies and interests and more.
Thank you everyone for a very enjoyable session.
We look forward to next time when we kick off the Christmas season & celebrate Barchester Healthcare being 30 years old!
Van Gogh, Who?
Vincent may be good, but he isn't anything compared to our amazing artist in residence!
Take a look at the gorgeous picture painted this afternoon up on Memory Lane, by the fantastic Gillian, during an art therapy session...
Well done Gillian!
Introducing Walter!
We are very delighted to announce that we will be welcoming the very gorgeous, Walter the poodle and his human friend, Stacey, who will be regular visitors to our home in the near future!
Eight-year-old Walter, was rehomed with Stacey back in February and has worked very hard since, to get his award as a certified PAT (Pets as Therapy) dog.
Walter LOVES cuddles, playing with his football and is very gentle and the perfect tonic to make our residents feel all the better for having seen him!
He came along recently to Trinity Manor and met with Home Services Advisor, Rebekah, who welcomed him and gave both him and Stacey their inaugural tour of our home, so that he could get used to the sounds and smells and also the lift (which he wasn't so sure about, but after lots of love from Stacey, was very happy with).
Welcome to the Trinity Manor team, Walter & Stacey, we look forward to seeing you in December!
We Will Remember Them
On Remembrance day residents were pleased to be represented by our Activities Co-ordinator, Laura, as she lay a poppy wreath on behalf of the home at the cenotaph outside the Abbey.
Afterwards, residents were absolutely delighted to welcome some of the members of 874 - Sherborne Air Cadet Squadron , who came to chat with some of our residents and share stories and experiences.
Thank you for joining us for the afternoon, it was hugely appreciated by us all.

'They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.'
