From our larger events including Garden Parties in our spectacular grounds to birthday celebrations with live musical entertainment we always have a broad range of events to suit all of our wonderful residents. We also go on a number of outings throughout the year in and around Shropshire, many of which are linked to community organisations whom cater specifically for interests of the people we support.

Something we have always been passionate about here at The Mount is Music therapy and we offer a diverse musical programme of live music and entertainers throughout the year to suit all tastes. Food theme days and tasting afternoons, as well as regular Cookery classes and chair yoga are on offer as well as beauty therapy and massage. 
We aim to consistently provide a high quality activities programme for all of our residents and ensure that regardless of limitations and circumstances each individual has the best possible experience within our home, through both a physical and mentally stimulating person-centred approach.

Autumn afternoon tea

At the Mount House we enjoyed our weekly vintage tea afternoon with an autumn twist and we all enjoyed some very yummy cakes made by our chef.

The cakes and biscuits were decorated by our residents in our weekly bakery club earlier in the day, these were decorated with a small spooky twist to get us in the Halloween spirit!

We also had an extra guest visitor,  Pete our pumpkin headed scarecrow made by our residents in our arts and crafts session, he was very scary!
