The Monsignor Hawes story will continue to live on for all to experience with $1.541 million Royalties for Regions investment for the Monsignor Hawes Heritage Centre Project. The total project cost of $3.6 million is also made up from funding provided through LotteryWest ($651,000), the Roman Catholic Diocese and community fundraising efforts. The project complements the restoration of Geraldton’s iconic Catholic cathedral and its environs with the Monsignor Hawes Heritage Centre located on the site. The Centre serves as an information gateway and hub to around 20 Monsignor Hawes buildings located throughout the Mid West and Gascoyne.
