Dubbed Mandela 100, the showcase has been organised by the African Women's Forum (AWF) and will go on display at Central Library in Guildhall Walk.Â
Boosted by £28,100 from the Heritage Lottery Fund, its aim is to teach people about the values the South African anti-apartheid revolutionary held. Its name ties in with Mandela's birth date, July 18, 1918, a century ago.
