Nurses for Reform
Nurses for Reform is an attempt to give the impression that there is a groundswell of opinion, for increased private involvement in the NHS, within the nursing profession. It is in fact a front group formed by Helen Evans wife of Dr Tim Evans a well connected networker within the shadowy world of right-wing neo-liberal think tanks. Apart from the rather depleted advisory board below Helen Evans is the only name mentioned on their website. Throwing into doubt their claim that 'Nurses for Reform (NFR) is a growing pan-European network of nurses'. However their claim that they are 'dedicated to consumer-oriented reform of European healthcare systems' is arguably a euphimism for privatisation of healthcare.
