My experience of Mr Hussain is through my role as chair of trustees of Archway Methodist Church. From approximately 2008 until I left for a new post in July 2014 I assumed responsibility for the church property, which included a portfolio of seven (latterly six) leased properties. During this period we had several changes of lessee. On every occasion Mr Hussain was very helpful in drawing up the lease to the instructions of the managing trustees and the custodian trustees and ensuring we were following our obligations under charity law. His communications with us, our letting agent and our prospective lessees and their legal representatives were always prompt and polite, but also robust when he had to defend our interest. Although this was usually conducted by letter, he was always quick to respond to a phone call when I needed advice and was always willing to explain legal jargon to a lay person like myself. On more than one occasion Mr Hussain very generously offered to waive part of his fees, which was much appreciated by a charitable organisation working on a budget.
