On the achievements of Japan House London to date, Director General Sam Thorne said: 'We're still a relatively young organization but we feel like we've achieved a great deal over the last five years, from holding over 900 free events to inspiring visits to Japan by students, professionals and tourists. There is no doubt that as well as the hard work of our own team, these achievements have come about as a result of the generous support of our collaborators, partners, and of course our visitors. As we reach this significant milestone, we are delighted to be able to say thank you to all of our supporters with this series of free events, activities and competitions.'
