Our Team | Shrewsbury House

We are delighted to present our Shewsy team.

The Shewsy has always been widely recognised as centre of excellence. This has been achieved by the quality and dedication of its staff and by the support of many individuals in Merseyside and beyond, especially Shrewsbury School.

The Shewsy is managed by a Board of Trustees made up of representatives from the local area, from Liverpool diocese and from Shrewsbury School.
