With exclusive access to over 33 million priceless historical treasures and a world class film archive of more than 23,000 hours of rare film footage, SECRETS OF THE IMPERIAL WAR MUSEUM uncovers never before heard first-hand accounts, and reveals the pressures faced and satisfaction felt by a team of hundreds of IWM experts and volunteersas as they work to preserve objects and stories from our wartime past.

6)  Part 6

The final touches are being made ahead of the opening of the new L30 million Second World War and The Holocaust Galleries at IWM London. Uniforms for the central cases are ready for display and museum staff have gathered for an unusual meeting to try out different poses to decide exactly what sort of mannequins need to be specially built for the delicate items. While the museum has countless personal stories, many communities and individuals are underrepresented across its collections. Improving the diversity of IWMs collection of stories and objects to show a wide range of experiences of war and conflict is critical and a growing focus for the museum.

In the stores at IWM Duxford, curator Alan Wakefield is working to address this gap and has just acquired the bracelet of Sergeant William Robinson Clarke, the first black pilot to join the Royal Flying Corps, to help tell the story of his vital contribution to the war.
