The Wellcome Trust is a hugely important organisation, and it is vital that its fundraising continues unabated.

Stories, as we're taught in journalism school early on, are told through people. Those stories make our documentaries powerful. You can explore someone's culture, you can explore their experience, you can explore an issue through human beings who are going through it.
Books were rare,expensive, time-consuming to create and copy, and difficult to transport.
