Melbourne Heritage Restoration Fund (MHRF)

Q. What is the Melbourne Heritage Restoration Fund (MHRF)? A. The Melbourne Heritage Restoration Fund (MHRF) is a non-for-profit, collaborative initiative. The Victorian Heritage Council and the National Trust of Australia (Victoria) make up the Committee of Management, which oversee the MHRF. The MHRF established a 'Seeding Fund' to support inner and middle-ring Councils to encourage conservation and restoration for privately owned heritage buildings. The support is provided within the context of an approved Heritage Project, which is facilitated by Council.

MHRF Funded Heritage Projects in Bayside: Council nominated the reinstallation of original verandahs and façade restoration for the 'Munro’s Building' in Church Street Brighton at a total project cost of $250,000 as well as façade restoration for a number of buildings in Melrose Street, Sandringham at a total cost of $25,000.
