An independent registered charity, NMGW receives its core funding through grant-in- aid from the Welsh Assembly Government as an Assembly Sponsored Public Body. Our core objective is ‘the advancement of the education of the public’, by developing, caring for, studying and sustaining access to the collections, for the benefit of society in perpetuity. The Charter (1907, revised 1991) states that this is to be achieved: ‘primarily by the complete illustration of the geology, mineralogy, zoology, botany, ethnography, archaeology, art, history and special industries of Wales by collection, conservation, elucidation, presentation and publication of objects and things.’ During 2004-05 our objectives were: • To promote a wide understanding and knowledge of Wales’s heritage, culture and role in world development and history. • To provide Wales with a national museum service that is an international centre of excellence, ensuring the best possible care for our continually expanding collections of national and international renown and importance. • To encourage research, study and appreci- ation of the arts, humanities, sciences and technology through our collections and expertise. • To inspire an ever-widening audience to visit and enjoy our excellent museums and benefit from their diverse resources and facilities. • To develop wisely and use creatively and effectively all our resources, ensuring max- imum efficiency and value for money. www.nmgw.ac.uk 5 annualreportpart1:annualreportpart1 30/9/05 9:40 am Page 6 CHANGE AND RENEWAL President’s foreword Welcome to the 2004-05 Annual Report of an organization that is well on the way to trans- forming itself. As we approach the centenary of the founding of the National Museum of Wales in 1907, we are putting in place several building blocks that will be the foundation for creating a world-class museum of learn- ing fit for the needs of the twenty-first centu- ry. The award of the Gulbenkian Museum of the Year prize for 2005 to Big Pit: National Mining Museum, indicates that we are well on the way. We are formulating a new vision for the future. Our role has been re-assessed and the themes on which we will concentrate have been identified.

It’s where the world’s first million pound deal was struck during the city’s industrial heyday (equivalent to over £100m today). Yet far from cherishing this building, Cardiff council proposes to demolish the main body of the building, keeping only the facades. If this happens, then the magnificent interior with its immense historical significance will be lost forever. This grade 2* listed building deserves better, and the views of the public need to be heard. The Council have been claiming for the past year that it is on the point of collapse. No works have been done, yet there is no apparent evidence that the building is about to collapse. It is questioned if Cardiff Council were able to use section 78 powers under the building act to progress their plans, and this needs to be investigated openly. So much of Cardiff Bay’s social and built heritage has already been destroyed; it seems inconceivable that more can be cast aside with cynical abandon. It’s unclear why the council refuses to see the value of restoring the Coal Exchange to protect this iconic building for the use and enjoyment of future generations.
