Our 50th anniversary gave us, the COMMUNITY of Shrewsbury Morris, the CHANCE to dance our way around the Shrewsbury monopoly board. We had to improvise for a few of the spots and, like all board games, we didn’t land on every space. ,May’s weather gave us a CHANCE to do work our way around the board. ,To finish we off got together at practice for the ending of Monopoly May at the Radbrook COMMUNITY Centre. We’d like to thank everybody for joining us on our trip around the Shrewsbury Monopoly board Dancing.

What a fabulous day we had taking Septimus to visit Yorkshire for the day. The weather was just right and Septimus did us proud between dances.

Shrewsbury Morris Dancers are delighted to feature on the Shrewsbury edition of the Monopoly Board Game, and it seemed fitting that as part of our 50th Anniversary Celebration Year we should dance the locations on the Board!

Watch out for us dancing in Shrewsbury Town Centre on Saturday 16th May. In the morning we will be popping up around Monopoly Board locations right in the centre of town and in the afternoon moving on toward the Library and the Prison.

Thursday 21st May evening from 7.00 pm onwards we will be visiting Theatre Severn and other locations around Pride Hill.

Sunday 24th May in the morning will find us dancing around the Quarry and Sabrina Boat area and in the afternoon at the Flaxmill. Take a chance and see if you find us we will be on the GO provided we can get out of JAIL and find some FREE PARKING.

What a day! We had glorious sunshine, we had heat, we had driving rain, we had cold, we had hail but, most importantly, we had FUN! A fabulous day dancing with both old friends and new. All for ‘Wear a Hat Day’ in aid of the Brain Tumour Trust.

The work never stops – practicing for our first dance out of the year at Jenny Pipe’s Day of Dance in Leominster on Saturday 28th March. Don’t forget to wear a hat!

We are delighted to be dancing as guests of Jenny Pipe’s Morris who are running the day as a fund raiser for The Brain Tumour Trust.

As this is part of the charity’s ‘Wear A Hat Day’ 2026 you can expect to se all sorts of interesting headgear being sported. Jenny Pipe’s Morris have set up their own Just Giving page for the occasion. To donate to this worthy charity please use this link.

We will be found dancing in various locations around Leominster during the day, along with many other Morris sides, so please come along and support both us and the Charity.

AND… Don’t forget to wear a hat – the sillier the better…!

Huge thanks to our own fabulously talented Ellie Cliftlands for creating our new Jubilee Logo

Snow and ice (in fact even the sun came out) didn’t stop Shrewsbury Morris having their first 2026 Bootcamp session. Here we are learning a new dance called ‘The Golden Loop’ written by Katie, Lizzie & Ellie. It’s gonna be a good ’un! We can’t wait to show you!

Happy New Year to everyone from Shrewsbury Morris Dancers. 2026 sees Shrewsbury Morris celebrating 50 years of dancing in and around Shrewsbury – and sometimes further afield too!

A great team of people who meet together every week and share a lot of fun and friendship and who wear their bells with pride. To find out more about Shrewsbury Morris follow us on facebook.com/shrewsbury.morris Instagram: @shrewsmorris or X(Twitter) :@shrewsmorris
