Activities at Moreton Hill Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Life at Moreton Hill Care Home
Art Exhibition at Moreton Hill
Here at Moreton Hill, our Senior General Manager, Roxana, has been inviting local artists to come along and display their work. We have started a small art exhibition in our home and would like to invite everyone to come along and see some of the work created by local talented artists. Residents here at Moreton Hill have enjoyed seeing all of the lovely new artwork appearing around our home, and are enjoying spending time taking a good look at it all.
Gentle Exercise Session
Here at Moreton Hill, residents enjoy our regular keep fit sessions with Martha. We invite resident's family and friends to join in with these sessions too. Residents have really enjoyed this activity and are already looking forward to our next keep fit session.
Fall Fighter
The University of Gloucestershire School of Health and Social care value the relationship with our partners at Barchester Healthcare. We have worked together providing placements for Health and Social Care students for a number of years, and including our students in this initiative is fantastic.
Celebrating 10 Years
We celebrated with Sue and Jackie 10 years of commitment and hard work at Barchester/Moreton Hill. They have both received personalised cards, a pin, flowers and numerous congratulations from Residents, colleagues, friends and relatives.
A visit from Wild Science
We all love animals here at Moreton Hill, apart from our 2 great pet cats, we regularly have the opportunity to see and touch exotic animals. Their keepers are ever so knowledgeable and tell us all sorts of fun facts about their pets.
We love a visit from Wild science with their exotic animals and less exotic guinea pigs.
Reminiscing with Families
Emma Crossley visited the home after both her parents lived at Moreton Hill. Emma brought a beautiful card and an amazing hamper for all of our staff. She visited the garden and the lounges where her parents used to watch the views and had lovely conversations with a cup of tea, great reminiscing.
