The King's Fund is a charitable foundation in England. Founded as the Prince of Wales Hospital Fund for London in 1897, the fund changed its name in 1902 to King Edward's Hospital Fund after the accession to the throne of King Edward VII.[1] In 1907, Parliament incorporated the fund as the King's Fund.
The King’s Fund seeks to understand how the health system in England can be improved. Using that insight, it helps to shape policy, transform services and bring about behaviour change.[citation needed] Its work includes research, analysis, leadership development and service improvement. It also offers a wide range of resources to help everyone working in health to share knowledge, learning and ideas.[citation needed] It organizes conferences[2] and other events.[3]
