Transition and Legacy Team

The Transition and Legacy team is responsible for the effective transition and completion of a diverse portfolio of grants, partnerships and external activities that do not align with Wellcome’s new strategy so that they achieve impact. 

Transition and Legacy is a multidisciplinary team working on a diverse portfolio of activities established by Wellcome’s former Culture and Society, Innovations and Science divisions before the launch of our new strategy.

We aim to ensure that the research grants, partnerships and other activities that do not align with Wellcome’s current strategy transition to new forms of support or complete successfully.
