Abstract

The King's Fund is a long-established health policy think tank involved in work on evidence-based policy in the United Kingdom. There have been few accounts of how think tanks operate. This essay seeks to partially fill that gap by reviewing the work of the Fund between 2010 and 2018, when the author was its chief executive. The essay outlines the history and status of the Fund, its funding and staffing, and the range of activities undertaken. Examples of policy areas in which the Fund was active and its impact on both policymakers in central government and leaders working in the National Health Service are discussed.
