V&A Dundee Removes Sackler Name Signs over Opioid Links

Dundee’s V&A museum has removed signs with the Sackler family name due to their alleged links with the ongoing opioid crisis in the US.

Before Dundee’s V&A museum opened in September 2018, it received a £500,000 donation from the Sackler Trust. A plaque placed in the entrance hall of the museum included the names of major donors to the museum, including the Sacklers.
