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.
Jo Henderson
Hi, my name is Jo Henderson and I am the Activities Coordinator here at Moors Manor.
I am looking forward to bringing my creative side to the home as I was previously a florist and baker and look forward to us making lots of lovely treats for us all to enjoy.
When at home Jo is a mother to two wonderful daughters and also a pet mum to labrador Marley.
I cannot wait to welcome our residents into their wonderful new home and help to bring smiles, joy and laughter to each day.

Planting sunflowers in the sunshine
Our residents thoroughly enjoyed planting our sunflower seeds this week. Each has a named pot so they can watch whose grows quickest. It was lovely to see smiles and laughter.
Tour de Barchester
We were delighted with an unexpected visit from the Tour de Barchester Cycle ride visited Moors Manor this morning. They were very grateful for the Lemon drizzle and cup cakes before heading off on the next leg of their incredible journey cycling throughout the South over four long days to raise money for the Barchester Foundation.
