Local artist Carmen Renwick has donated some of her paintings to Cambridge Cyrenians for display in our shared houses. The beautiful pieces will be displayed in some of our 21 houses for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness in Cambridge, helping to create a welcoming and positive living environment for our residents.
We are really grateful to Carmen for this very generous donation of artworks for our houses,” says Project Worker Kevin Walshe. “We work hard to make sure the people we support feel at home in our accommodation, and these beautiful pieces will help so much to brighten up the spaces for our residents.”
