The new space is built inside a converted railway arch and is one of the first parts of the redevelopment of London's iconic Battersea Power Station.

The Princess Royal, who is President of the HRH The Duke of Edinburgh's Commonwealth Study Conferences, was attending a Commonwealth Leaders event at the site – a six day global leadership conference in which 100 leaders in government, NGOs and businesses across the Commonwealth found out more about the 42-acre riverside redevelopment.
