| Awards for Excellence Wakkas Khan
Wakkas Khan is a dental surgeon and a community leader with senior experience in both fields. As a student at the University of Manchester he was President of the Federation of Student Islamic Societies, which coincided with the tragic London bombings of 7/7. He led the Muslim student response, was an advisor to Government and helped set up the Radical Middle Way Project. Based in Manchester, he has since served as trustee of the Muslim Youth Foundation and has recently been named as one of thirteen faith advisors to the Department of Communities and Local Government. At the age of 29, he was named by the Appointments Commission to sit on the General Dental Council: the youngest person ever and the only Muslim to be selected for such a post. |
