Here's the latest from our Global Grant Scholar -- Jourdan McGinn. She has her UK student visa in hand and is ready to head for London. Jourdan will leave Friday to return to Africa for a visit with friends before leaving for London on September 10th. She'll be greeted at London Heathrow by Rotarians from District 1260 -- her host district during her studies which start the end of September.
Her host club is the Rotary Club of Newport Pagnell (https://www.rotary-ribi.org/clubs/homepage.php?ClubID=557#meetinfo). Newport Pagnell is northwest of London about 15 minutes from Bletchley Park, famous from Battle of Britain and WWII code breaking days. The district has a special weekend event in late September for Global Grant Scholars and Peace Fellows studying in the UK and Ireland.
Wishing Jourdan our best for a successful year in London.
