[Michael Pritchard]

The National Media Museum has had its five year plan to turnaround the museum accepted by the trustees of the Science Museum Group. The plans, presented by Jo Quinton-Tulloch, Head of the museum,will create two new permanent galleries, a temporary exhibition space, an overhaul of the lobby and entrances and will join the museum with a commercial cinema partner. They are dependent on securing funds to realise them. 

The Bradford Telegraph and Argus newspaper reports that the Chancellor's announcement of further funding cuts will impact on the SMG and the Media Museum. See: http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/local/localbrad/10863397...
