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.
Bibesh Shrestha
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
National Dog Day
The day helps to galvanize the public so that they can recognise the number of dogs that must be rescued on a yearly basis, from pure breed rescuers, rescues, and public shelters.
The day is all about paying tribute to these incredible animals who work selflessly to bring comfort, keep us safe, and save lives.
Every day, these animals put their lives on the line. There are dogs that protect our safety and freedom by detecting drugs and bombs, as well as those that pull victims from wreckages and tragic situations. Plus, we have dogs for the disabled, blind, and law enforcement.
From these heroic dogs to our family friends, these dogs hold special places in our lives, and so it is only right that we honour them.
Rainbow Day
Staff and residents are celebrating their own rainbow day with all things multi-coloured.
Staff dressed in rainbow colours, ate rainbow cupcakes and drank rainbow smoothies.
This was all to celebrate life and all of our NHS staff and key workers, their dedication, sacrifices, hard work and incredibly courageous attitude.
We thank Sherborne Preparatory School for their kindness and the gifts given to Trinity Manor staff: rainbow bunting & cups, which have contributed towards our celebration.
Alzheimer's Spinathon
Staff at Trinity Manor have taken on a 7 hour spinathon challenge to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Society as part of Alzheimer’s Awareness Month.
World Alzheimer's Month is the international campaign that's held every September to raise awareness and challenge the stigma that surrounds dementia. September 2020 marks the 9th World Alzheimer's Month. The campaign was launched in 2012. World Alzheimer's Day is on 21st September each year.
Residents and staff were all very supportive and were there to cheer on the participants as they began the fundraising challenge.
Taking part in this challenge has been a huge amount of fun and everyone at the home has been behind us all the way. It’s for such an important cause.
Trinity Manor raised a grand total of £200 by completing the challenge, which will be donated to the Alzheimer’s Society.
A Perfect Sunday
Residents and the General Manager at Trinity Manor are absolutely delighted of being able to spend every Sunday afternoon together playing games, chatting and reminiscing.
VJ Day
Residents at Trinity Manor celebrated the 75th anniversary of Victory Over Japan Day.
Whilst VE Day (Victory in Europe) marked the end of the war in Europe in May 1945, many thousands of Armed Forces personnel were still engaged in bitter fighting in the Far East.
Victory over Japan would come at a heavy price, and Victory over Japan Day (VJ Day) marks the day Japan surrendered on the 15th August 1945, which in effect ended the Second World War.
Dance Classes
Our Activities Coordinator is a trained dancer and singer so our residents are benefiting from their own weekly dance lessons of their choice.
Dancing is great for elderly people, as it will helps to keep fit and healthy. Dancing regularly will help maintain people’s strength and strong bones, improve their posture and muscle strength, increase their balance and coordination and will help relieve any stresses they may have.
