FT is not the place to obtain visa advice. Check with official sources.

Your friend would normally likely stay airside and not formally enter UK.
Your friend should check before the flight is a transit visa is required for an airside transit and/or a visa is needed to enter UK and meet you land side.
If will depend on the passport held and more.

Or the post above, he could meet you at T3 airside if you have an international flight. Has some risks.
