| Notes | G. Knuttel writes: "Came across your site and thought I might mention the film "The Road To Mandela" which tells the story of a group of blind and visually impaired cyclists from Ireland who cycled across South Africa along the route that Mandela took in 1955 when he carried out the first major fact finding mission for the ANC. Their goal was to raise money for The National Councils For The Blind of Ireland and South Africa and their adventures took them from the Township of Missionvale to a private audience in Nelson Mandela's Presidential palace. "Uplifting" The Irish Independent. Broadcast on RTE." Thanks to Julian Charlton http://www.apollogallery.ie for details.
