Wellcome

Mental health, climate change, and Infectious disease. These are the urgent health challenges facing everyone. And Wellcome supports science to solve them. It is a politically and financially independent global charitable foundation, funded by a GBP29 billion investment portfolio. Our strategy includes grant funding, advocacy campaigns and partnerships to find solutions for today’s health challenges. Wellcome (formally, The Wellcome Trust) was founded in 1936, in accordance with pharmaceutical entrepreneur Henry Wellcome’s will, to improve health by supporting scientific research and the study of medicine.
