We love you Madiba x

Nelson Mandela changed the heartbeat of the country I grew up in. He had humility and compassion, coupled with great fortitude, a rare mix for a leader. Especially a political one. He brought together a land fraught with mistrust, hurt and fear. Through forgiveness, through sport (!), through keeping his word, through a genuine love for the people of South Africa... No matter their colour or status. He loved all people. He especially loved children. He made a difference, and we will always love him and be grateful for the healing he brought to our rainbow nation. 

We love you Madiba x
