Talking at the meeting, Hall said: “This year’s Chevening Scholars reflect the talent, ambition and promise of Jordan’s youth. Like previous generations of Chevening Scholars, they will make an enormous contribution in Jordan and to the enduring partnership between our two nations. I wish them every success with their studies.”
