Introduction by Bonnie Greer
The deputy chair of the British Museum Trustees introduces the new World Conservation and Exhibitions Centre.
'There can be few institutions in the world that have had a greater impact on our understanding of cultural development than the British Museum. The provision of the World Conservation and Exhibitions Centre will enable that understanding to progress into the 21st Century – this facility is a vital addition.'
David Attenborough
