Shrewsbury care home hosts blue light breakfast

Mount House & Severn View Care Home in Shrewsbury threw open its doors on Monday, 28 July to offer breakfast for all local blue light services. Staff and residents at the home know how hard our emergency services work so they wanted to give something back and ensure all emergency workers know they are welcome at the home whenever they are passing to enjoy a freshly baked cake or sweet treat, along with a delicious cup of tea or coffee to send them on their way.

The event saw some off-duty paramedics pop in to enjoy some delicious pastries and a breakfast display put together by the home’s Head Chef Liz, as well as some very busy district nurses who were very grateful of the takeaway service while being very busy and on the go.

General Manager Jake Evans and Activities Co-ordinator Emma also made sure to hand deliver some bacon and sausage sandwiches and pastries across to the local ambulance services in Shrewsbury for anyone who couldn’t make the event, which were greatly received by everyone.

General Manager for Mount House & Severn View, Jake Evans, commented: “Our emergency services are absolute heroes, they work so hard and so selflessly, it is the least we can do to offer them some delicious, freshly baked croissants and breakfast sandwiches to set them up for the day.”
