05.01.2022 Today we remember Joe Hollomby. Joe was loved in Geraldton for his charity efforts. Affectionately known as the Shortbread Man, Joe baked, distributed and sold thousands of batches of shortbread and apple pies over nearly 20 years, earning more than one million dollars for charity. After Joe's tragic death on 15th November 2008, Joe's family and friends approached the GUC to set up a foundation in Joe's honour. The Hollomby Foundation has provided more than $400,000 in scholarships, prizes and support to GUC and our students since its inception in 2010. Today, we remember Joe and the wonderful legacy he has left.....

05.01.2022 Thank you to the wonderful Board of the Geraldton Universities Centre for your tireless commitment, energy and support for GUC's students, staff and the Centre. Our community are the winners as we continue to provide outstanding opportunity and supported access for some 300 local people to university education, meeting the needs for our future professional workforce.
