Activities at Moors Manor Care Home
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.
Bibesh Shrestha
Hi, My name is Bibesh Shrestha, Activity Coordinator for Moors Manor.
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 Moors Manor Care Home
Virtual trip to Machu Picchu
We have been enjoying virtual trips in our cinema room. Our residents travelled to Machu Picchu. It was enjoyed by all and they really loved learning about different cultures. We look forward to our next stop around the world.
Minibus trip to the local pub
Residents decided that they wanted to go to the local pub for a drink. When they were at the pub they were able to share stories with each other.
Robert mentioned how when he used to go to the pub when he was young they would pay £2 to go into a kitty and then at Christmas be given all the money to enjoy on Christmas Day.
It is always so lovely when residents reminisce and share their stories with each other.
Mount Everest Base Camp Documentary
Bibesh our Activities Co-Ordinator is always asking our residents what they would like to do and quite a few mentioned about watching documentaries on places of interest. The first documentary they all enjoyed was on a trek to Mount Everest Base Camp. Bibesh also shared about his experience in Nepal on the very same route.
The residents really enjoyed the documentary but also getting to hear about Bibesh's experience as well and look forward to watching the next one.
October Employee of the Month
Each month at Moors Manor, we like to recognise the fantastic work that our staff do and choose a winner for Employee of the Month.
October's winner is Nicole Willis who is our Community Care Lead in the home. We asked our General Manager Jenna why she choose Nicole "For being polite, helpful and being an asset to the team. Nicole comes to work with a smile on her face and gives the best she can."
Well done from all at Moors Manor.
Halloween Seated Exercise
We had Kate from Love to Move this week for her exercise class, but as it was Halloween we all had a bit of fun with the spiders, pumpkins that Kate had brought in with her. It wasn't too scary for our residents here but we all had a bit of fun with it.
Ladies minibus outing
Trips on the mini bus are always a great way to get some fresh air and of course, enjoy delicious cake! Deputy manager Gemma and Bibesh enjoyed taking Marjorie, Maisie and Val out.
