Activities at Moors Manor Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.
Our activities team are great at building the activities programme around the likes and interests of the people we care for. Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure is part of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat are always welcomed.

Life at Moors Manor Care Home
Celebrating Robert's 90th Birthday
At the weekend we help celebrate Robert's 90th Birthday here in the home. Robert had a wonderful afternoon with family and residents where we put on a party for him with entertainer Dave who sang a variety of songs that had everyone singing along too. We finished off the party with a beautiful birthday created by the dining team which everyone very much enjoyed.
Happy 90th Birthday Robert from everyone here at Moors Manor.
Baking Club
Residents do enjoy a bit of baking here in the home, this week's culinary delight was chocolate rice crispy cakes which had residents all get involved with the mixing, dishing up into each cake case and adding sprinkles on top to finish them off.
All the residents were reminiscing about their days when they would do this with their own families and then all got to enjoy eating them later on.
Flower Arranging
We had our wonderful volunteers again to help with flower arranging. This time residents made individual posy arrangements with a selection of flowers in pretty pink and lilac and a selection of foliage to compliment the flowers.
There was a lot of concentration to get the posy arrangements looking just right but everyone had a lovely time in our activities room and were all really pleased with what they created.
Masie's 97th Birthday
We have had more celebrations here in the home this time to celebrate Maisie's 97th Birthday. We had a party with music from Nigel Reville who sang a variety of songs for everyone to enjoy and also had a beautiful lemon cake made by the dining team which everyone thoroughly enjoyed.
Happy Birthday Maisie from everyone here at Moors Manor.
