MANDELA COMES TO LONDON TO MAKE POVERTY HISTORY
TRAFALGAR SQUARE, LONDON 12pm THURSDAY FEBRUARY 3RD

On Thursday 3rd February, Nelson Mandela will be coming to London at the invitation of MakePovertyHistory. He will be endorsing MakePovertyHistory - the biggest anti-poverty campaign ever.

You can come too.

He will be addressing a crowd of thousands in Trafalgar Square in London to put pressure on world leaders to ensure more and better aid, drop the debt and deliver trade justice. He will also as well as calling on the public to get involved and take action.

It's going to be special.

The finance ministers of the G7 (Group of 7 industrialised Countries) will meet the following day in London. From that meeting we want to see significant steps to drop the debts of developing countries which currently costs them $39 billion a year. When Mr Mandela meets with the finance ministers he will take a message from all of us to all of them.

Come and add your voice to the global call to Make Poverty History.

White bands, the symbol of the campaign, will adorn the square, Nelson's Column and we're hoping you'll come wearing one too.
