Diane Leather (Born 7th January 1933) died from a stroke on this day in 2018.
She was the first English female athlete to run the mile in under 5 minutes.
On the 29th May 1954, during the AAA Midlands Championships, Leather won the mile with a time of 4 minutes 59.6 seconds.
This was only 23 days after Roger Bannister became the first man to run under 4 minutes (3minute 59.4 seconds) for the mile.
Born in Streetly, Staffordshire, she was one of six children. Leather ran for Birchfield Harriers in Birmingham while studying chemistry at what is now Aston University.
We are fortunate to have a personally signed, action image of Leather in our collection:

On this day in 1963, NELSON MANDELA began 27 years in prison!
Initially on Robben Island, seven miles off the coast of Cape Town, then after 18 years in two inland prisons!
These two commemorative items - a First Day Cover dated 01.12.2007 and the 4664 Concert Programme (he was the 466th prisoner) are ideal gifts relating to this great man.
