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
VIP Opening
Care home staff and guests were delighted when the Mayor of Sherborne, Councillor Jon Andrews officially opened Trinity Manor Care Home on Bradford Road.
The Mayor greeted Trinity Manor’s first resident, Dr Valerie Marrett, along with invited guests, and gave a speech before unveiling the plaque, marking the official opening on the 12th December 2019. This was followed by a cake cutting with Dr Valerie Marrett and a dove release to mark the special occasion. During the visit, guests were given tours of the home, and were treated to a selection of homemade canapés and mulled wine as well as live entertainment including an Opera Tenor performance and music from a local harpist.
Handover of Keys
Sue Monger, the General Manager of Trinity Manor, was delighted to accept the keys to the care home from the Project Construction Manager, Nigel Custard, at Acheson Construction. During the build more than 140,000 bricks were laid, over 900 energy-saving light bulbs were fitted, and in addition to 1,800m² of turf, 500 plants, trees and shrubs were used to create the landscaped grounds.
Sue Monger said: “The builders have done a sterling job and the finish is second to none. Our expert interior design team has also added flair and luxury furnishings to the interior, completing the entire refurbishment in just two weeks!
“Our intention is to create a building that offers bespoke, high quality to our residents, where we can provide person-centred care to meet their individual needs. Personalised care really is at the heart of everything we do, and we are looking forward to welcoming our first residents in December.”
Resident Ambassador Checks Room Progress
Our Honour Resident Ambassador Dr Valerie Marett checked out the progress on the building of where her room is going to be. It was an exciting moment for Valerie.
