Meet the people of Wembley Park
Ben works in music at The SSE Arena Wembley
"I've been in the music industry for a while working for different music labels and venues. Starting at The SSE Arena was a really exciting step for me. It's one of the most iconic venues in the world – there's just so much history. Working here is a massive role. When all the hard work that everyone has put in behind the scenes makes the show a success – that's just the best feeling."
Amanda is a freelance photographer, specialising in concerts, and life-long Wembley resident
"I feel so lucky to have lived around Wembley all my life. It holds so many memories for me and it's great to see how the area is changing. I'll always remember being taught to drive in front of Wembley Stadium. You used to be able to drive down Olympic Way, all the way from the station to the Stadium!"
Shipha owns and runs fashion label House of Bilimoria
"Both of my grandfathers were tailors so it just came very naturally. I started my own label in 2008 and called it House of Bilimoria. My inspiration comes from my mother. She worked for HSBC in the 80s and 90s and would go to work suited and booted. After work she would come home and transform into an Indian goddess. That's what House of Bilimoria is all about – bringing ethnicity into the boardroom in a classic yet bohemian way."
Sallyha is an entrepreneur and model living in Wembley Park
"I remember being 16 and was at a point in my life when I didn't truly know what to with my life for a career. Then my mother dared me to apply to the Peter Jones Enterprise Academy. Now I channel that kind of determination into everything I do. I've lived in Wembley Park for four years now – it really feels like my new home."
