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.

Life at Trinity Manor Care Home
All aboard!
This week we were able to create a special memory for one of our families. We were able to support John to visit his daughter’s fantastic business and share with her for the morning.
It was beautiful to see them interact and they all loved every minute of it. We enjoyed the hospitality of PIPS in Lopen, just outside Yeovil.
Their quirky cafe serves outstanding coffee, teas and delicious cakes crafted on-site in their brand new bakeshop. The restaurant creates exciting flavours inspired by their organic farm serving breakfast and lunch. All served in a refurbished 1850’s train carriage, double-decker bus & marquee.
Musical Memory Lane
Recently on Memory Lane things got a little noisy as our residents got into the carnival spirit making music with each other.
As you can see from their faces this was definitely a hit. It’s widely recognised that Music can have many benefits in the setting of dementia. It can help reduce anxiety and depression, help maintain speech and language, is helpful at the end of life, enhances quality of life and has a positive impact on carers.
Trinity Manor Celebrates Holi
Staff and residents joined together to celebrate Holi Festival, with a group residents having fun throwing coloured paint over a few of our team, as well as residents on Memory Lane creating colourful patterns with a well-known sweet. Although now a worldwide celebration, Holi is mostly acknowledged in countries in Asia, such as India, Nepal, and Bangladesh. Also known as the Festival of Colours, the Festival of Spring, and the Festival of Love, Holi is a celebration during which people famously throw colourful powder and water at one another! Holi is primarily a Hindu festival, celebrated by followers of the Hindu religion. However, people from all kinds of backgrounds and religions around the world are encouraged to have fun and take part in the Holi celebrations!
We've achieved a perfect score on Carehome.co.uk
Staff and residents are delighted to reach their goal of a perfect overall score of 10 on the independent care home review website, carehome.co.uk.
Carehome.co.uk is often one of the first places people will look when searching for a care home for a loved one. It is independently run to ensure that all reviews are vetted and come from people who have genuine experience of the homes that they are reviewing.
General Manager Sohail, said: “We are beyond thrilled to reach a perfect overall score of 10 on carehome.co.uk, it just goes to show what a credit to the home the team at Trinity Manor really are. I am so proud of each and every one of them for all of their hard work and dedication to the people they care for. We have a fantastic team here, I’m so lucky to work with such wonderful people and to have such lovely residents.”
Chinese New Year
Trinity Manor welcomes the Year of the Dragon...
The Dragon is powerful, endlessly energetic and full of vitality, goal-oriented yet idealistic and romantic, and a visionary leader. They know exactly who they are and possess the keenest sense of self among the 12 zodiacs of Chinese astrology.
Our fresh start commenced by delivering fortune cookies around the home. With inspirational messages such as "delight the world with compassion, kindness and grace" & "the early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese", our favourite token of inspiration was "Some days you are pigeon, some days you are statue. Today, bring umbrella."
Let's see what fortunes these may bring!
Dreams can come true
This week we were able to grant one of our residents new year wishes to go to a classical music concert.
With the fantastic and generous help from Westlands Yeovil we were able to grant Pat’s new year wish. We were treated to Armonico Consort ‘The forgotten Scarlatti Tour’.
It was smiles all round as the beautiful music was played and sung. There was even an interval ice cream.
