Bishops Jack Dain and Donald Cameron, together with Graham and Wendy Toulmin, were involved in originally seeking to establish Langham Trust Australia in 1980-1981 to raise funds and awareness of the Langham Trust’s work in the Australian Christian scene. They worked largely at this time among friends and supporters of John Stott, and people who had spent time at All Souls, Langham Place, in London.
The Toulmins relinquished their roles in 1985 when they went as missionaries to Zaire with Church Missionary Society Australia. Donald Cameron, together with others, continued on the work for the next couple of years.
Paul Barnett, before retiring as bishop of North Sydney, was chair of Langham Trust Australia roughly from 1995 to 2000.
When Langham Partnership International was formed April 2001, Wendy Toulmin became the Australian representative on the international council. Bishop Rob Forsyth agreed to take up the position of Langham Partnership Australia Chair together with a small committee. In July 2002, John Stott and Christ Wright visited six capital cities, truly relaunching Langham in Australia.
