Behind-the-scenes Tours

Behind-the-Scenes tours

First and last Friday of every month, 13.30

As you explore Wellcome Collection, you’ll encounter a series of ‘satellite exhibits’: dramatic displays of art and artefacts owned by the Wellcome Trust, the UK’s largest charity. Each year, the Trust spends some £500 million on innovative biomedical research, providing invaluable support to the brightest scientists with the best ideas. In addition, a further £3m is available each year for projects that actively engage the public with the social, cultural and historical issues bound up with biomedical research.

Join one of these walking tours, led by staff who work for the Wellcome Trust, to explore the building, the satellite exhibits and the work of the Wellcome Trust in more depth.

These tours take place at 13.30 on the first and last Friday of every month. There will be no Behind-the-scenes Tour on Friday 26 December or Friday 2 January.

These tours last for approximately one hour and there are limited seating opportunities.

There is no need to book (though spaces are limited) - just meet your guide beside the Information Desk on the ground floor.
