All About Us!
The English House is located on County Road E between 35E and Highway 61 just east of English Street. Sidewalks are available so it is easy to take walks to the park, to the hockey Arena, restaurants, or just stroll around the neighborhood. We are an active house as we take part in several community activities and enjoy being outside as much as we can. We also like to take several get-a-ways during the year.
Music is a big part of our house with music therapy scheduled twice a month. We enjoy playing board games and the Wii. We also appreciate our own time where we can do what we personally enjoy. Each week, we plan our meals together and in the summer, it is usually on the grill. We attend several day programs, with some of us partially retired. The day programs we attend are PAI, MSS-Ocean, and Northeast Contemporary Services.
