Following careful consideration of the rapidly changing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, we’ve decided that the Wellcome Trust and Wellcome Collection buildings will begin a staggered closure to staff and visitors, and then remain closed until further notice.
We've made this decision in the interests of the health and wellbeing of our staff, service partners, tenants, contractors and visitors.
Our assessment is that the current course of the COVID-19 pandemic makes it inevitable that we will need to close our buildings before long, and that a planned closure now will be less disruptive than a sudden shutdown later.
While Wellcome’s buildings will close, Wellcome will remain very much open for business. We will continue to conduct as much of our work as we can remotely. Here's what you need to know if you're a grant applicant or grantholder.
From Tuesday 17 March we're asking all staff and tenants to work from home unless essential.
