Events 

The Nuffield Trust is considered a 'Chatham House' for healthcare policy; a neutral place for small group discussion, often with an international audience. Its highly regarded seminars attract leading experts in health policy across the UK, Europe and North America.

As the Trust needs to gauge views from specific groups, the majority of our events are by invitation only.
