Julius has heard of Wilson's work in trying to alter the difficult conditions of minority faith groups in Pakistan. Impressed with the tenacity Wilson has shown and the committment to resolve a long running problem in Pakistan that many choose to ignore he came to visit Wilson in His offices, whilst staying in the UK. A first for Redbridge and an honour for Wilson who was highly impressed with the Julius's humility, experience and willingness to guide future generations. Wilson has been invited to attend his inaugral UK meeting for the "World Minorities Alliance", on the 11th of April. At this meeting Julius will be detailing his aspirations for the proposed group.
