The Wellcome Photography Prize is now open for entries, celebrating exceptional visual storytelling that explores health, science and human experience around the world.
As the Prize approaches its 30th anniversary in 2027, it continues to bring together diverse perspectives on how health is understood, experienced and shaped across different cultures, communities and environments.
Free to enter and open to anyone, anywhere in the world – from photographers and scientists to first-time image makers. The person behind the lens matters less than the story it helps to tell.
Entries are invited across three categories: striking solo photography, a storytelling series and the marvels of scientific and medical imaging. A total prize fund of £52,000 will be awarded, with £10,000 for each category winner, and 25 finalists receiving a cash prize.
Everything you need to know, including how to enter and full terms and conditions, is available on our website.
So, are you ready to share your story?
Entries close 21 October 2026.
