Wellcome Trust
Battle of Ideas festival champion

We support the Battle of Ideas because they share our aim to encourage people to consider and question the key issues raised by research into health and the human condition. We look forward to another spirited weekend of thought-provoking discussion and debate!

"Five debates a day sounds a bit daunting beforehand, but I really loved it. The speakers are so knowledgeable and passionate about their chosen topic, and the amount of time dedicated to questions from the audience was great as it really brought in alternative views."
