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
A Lovely Afternoon of Entertainment
With songs by Elvis Presley, Jonny Cash, Neil Diamond, Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Tom Jones and many more. We had a fabulous afternoon, singing along & foot tapping. A huge thank you to Dave for cheering us up on a wet & windy day.
Skittles Queen!
Staying fit and well at any age is important to us all and having fun whilst getting active is a great way to burn those calories and stretch. A friendly competition with cake and a cuppa to follow!
Monday Manicures!
What a lovely way to start the week with a 'Monday manicure' We all enjoy a little pampering and chatting while receiving a nail treatment from one of our lovely team is a perfect Monday!
A Thank You for our Lovely Team
Appreciation of our dedicated team is so important. Thank you for those staff who always go the extra mile for our residents. The chocolates are a small gesture to say a huge thank you to the team for their hard work and commitment to their residents and colleagues.
Virtual Cruise, Cookery Demonstration & Tasting Event
We enjoyed a virtual cruise with a live, interactive cookery demo. Our chefs prepared the same recipes as the demo so we could try all the dishes. As the 'cruise' pulled into each port, we were given clues to identify where we were visiting and then tasted a typical dish from that country...bellissimo
Mount House Carnival
Notting Hill Carnival atmosphere came to the Mount for our party & carnival event. We had fun with a coconut shy, Caribbean party inspired music, fresh fruit platters, cocktails & mocktails!
