Activities at Mount House and Severn View
Our Activities team is a dedicated group whom strive to ensure that the residents of Mount House have a broad range of meaningful activities daily which reflect the needs, wants and interests of all our residents. 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.

Life at Mount House and Severn View
Little Explorers Bring Joy
The regular visits from Little Explorers bring so much joy to the residents and we know how much the children also enjoy their visits. Seeing the generations interact is so special, a game of balloon tennis was a great hit with all.
Weekly Flower Arranging Club is a Master Class
Mount House and Severn View residents have always enjoyed flower arranging and with an experienced florist on the team it is now a weekly activity. Joyce is not only running the weekly club, but also imparting her skills and knowledge and the end results are stunning.
