Python Menu Creation ValueError and not in list

How can i do a while loop to incorporate ValueError and input not in list.

def region():
    print("What is the Region?")
    print("1: Central")
    print("2: North")
    print("3: North-East")
    print("4: East")
    print("5: West")
    region = int(input("Region: "))
    while region not in [1,2,3,4,5]:
        print("Invalid Response. Please choose the correct region.")
        print("Please choose again!")
        region = int(input("Region: "))

this code will keep looping if input is not within the list of options but if i were to input characters or symbols it will raise ValueError.

            reg = int(input("Region: "))
        except Exception as e:
            continue
    return reg
