H2: Conservation services
Our conservation team [link to conservation page] cares for paintings, works on paper, photographs and objects in the Gallery’s collection, ensuring their preservation for future generations.
Our Conservation Research Centre carries out technical research into the materials, making and history of artworks. This research informs conservation treatments and builds essential knowledge about works in our collection.

While we do not offer conservation treatments for privately owned artworks, our conservators can offer guidance on how to care for them.
