Friends of Victoria Park, Stretford

Met with Iqbal Wahhab

We run a community building and cafe in a park in Stretford, Manchester. We run a health and social wellbeing programme, and run community events.

One of the most useful hours of my life. Iqbal was an amazing listener and gave some great advice. It was fantastic to talk through some issues to someone with such a wealth of experience in order to clarify them, and Iqbal was able to offer potential solutions and helpful resources to try. I would recommend a conversation with Iqbal to everyone – he’s a genuinely lovely guy.
