Flinders University 2025 Mavis Brown Scholarship

Applications are now open for the Flinders University 2025 Mavis Brown Scholarship. This scholarship has been established in honour of Mavis Haydon. During her lifetime Mavis Haydon recognised and valued the power of education. She was acutely aware that the opportunity to attend University remains beyond the financial means of many talented young people. By establishing a perpetual charitable trust in support of University scholarships in her will, Mavis Haydon sought to address this imbalance.
