Question: What is your most prized possession and how do you take care of it?
Lizzy Nicholson 21 Bridal shop assistant.
That’s a difficult one. Shoes or jewellery? Probably something really silly like my necklace, which was my grandma’s and it’s her ring and her cross and I look after it by not taking it off my neck I suppose. Things that for some people don’t really have a value but for me like tickets and stuff that I keep in a memory box.

Well I would say Liz but, yeah, I’d probably have to say my guitar and I look after it by having it hung on the wall. I have a hard case for it too but when I’m not using it it’s on the wall.

My most treasured possession is probably my keyboard from about 1979. How do I keep it safe? I lock it up!
Tulula Rose 26 Burlesque artist.
Probably my violin and I just take good care of it. I don’t put it in unusual places.
Ffion McOwen 22 Shop assistant.
Probably my laptop and I guess I just have it insured. Keep it in my room.
Joshua Lewis 32 Branch manager.
My keys to my flat and I keep them in my pocket!

The talk will be held by Conservator Sue Renault, Head of Conservation, Social and Cultural History.
