The UK-based John Monash Scholars held their Annual London Dinner at Australia House on 14th February, a highlight of the Scholars calendar to help unite the many John Monash Scholars located around the United Kingdom and parts of Europe. The event also hosted several of the Foundation's supporters and Australian dignitaries, with His Excellency the Hon George Brandis QC providing a speech to showcase the special relationship between Australia and the United Kingdom.

The Foundation's Director Mrs Jan McCahey and her husband Mr David McCahey also attended and gave a speech on behalf of the Foundation. 2018 Australian Universities' John Monash Scholar Ahmad Shah Idil also gave a speech on behalf of the 31 John Monash Scholars and their partners in attendance.

The dinner also welcomed several of our newest 2019 John Monash Scholars who were in the UK.
