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.

Hi, My name is Bibesh Shrestha, Activity Coordinator
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
Magic Table!
Residents here at Trinity Manor have managed to chase away any January blues recently, as up on our Memory Lane floor, our Magic Table has entertained them all well, bringing lots of interaction, smiles and laughter to our corridors!
It really is an amazing piece of equipment and we count ourselves so very lucky to have it here in our home.
Whether it's batting a ball to each other, popping bubbles, tickling & chasing the koi fish or rustling and gathering lots of leaves, there's always lots of giggles and faces filled with amazement as they connect and interact.
Book a visit to come and take a look for yourself!
Morning Has Broken
What a glorious winter morning our residents awoke to recently!
Jack frost had been about, giving everything a silvery layer in his wake, but what a stunning view there was around and about for our residents to enjoy!
In the garden, there was much to see for the residents as they wrapped up warm for their morning strolls, spotting the the bird bath which had a thin layer of ice across it.
Up on our top floor, the views were stunning across the South of Sherborne, as the mist started to burn off. We really are truly blessed to have such stunning surroundings here at Trinity Manor!
Oh, Baby!
It may be a while since our residents were nurturing babes in arms for themselves, but recently they held a surprise baby shower with some of the staff, so that they could send our Head Housekeeper, Vicky, off on her maternity leave with all our very best wishes!
Genuine surprise and shock adorned her face as she was coerced into the cafe area, where staff and residents cheered for her, surprising her with cakes, presents and mini baby shower games, such as 'Guess the Baby' & 'Stick the Dummy on the Baby'.
Vicky, we will miss you immensely, but send you away with all of our love and best wishes - You will be an AMAZING Mummy!
A Fitter You for 2022!
Our residents were all very keen to get fitter as we start 2022, so they joined the wonderful Craig's Communifit class here at Trinity Manor!
One of our most well attended sessions yet, and everyone raved about how much they all enjoyed it afterwards, especially Craig's company...
Thank you for your amazing efforts with our residents and see you next week Craig, for another fan club gathering!
Out with 2021, in with 2022!
We celebrated the new year with some party games, quizzes and looking at different traditions from around the world...
In Japan kites are made for celebrating the new year, whilst in Spain they eat 12 grapes to symbolise 12 lucky months ahead, and in the Jewish community it's tradition to eat apples dipped in honey!
The Trinity Manor tradition is to enjoy as much of this as possible, as well as enjoying some typical British fayre, such as cheese & pineapple on sticks!
At 2.22pm precisely, our residents celebrated early and toasted the new year with a glass of fizz, whilst singing 'Auld Lang Syne' together!
Gathering around the TV, residents then watched the celebrations on a live-stream around the world as the many fireworks displays took place in different time zones - A wonderful afternoon was had by all and a great start to 2022.
Christmas Board Games
It wouldn't be Christmas without some festive board games and in true traditional fashion, some of our residents, along with Joe our Activities Assistant, got stuck in to a good game of Scrabble...
We are delighted to report that thankfully it was very much enjoyed by all, unlike Monopoly in the Queen's household, which we had heard had been banned due to some right royal tantrums in the past by certain members of her family! Who would have thought it?!
