Tim Evans became the Director of Development at the Stockholm Network (SN) presumably around 2005 which is when he left the Centre for the New Europe.[9] Evans role at the SN involved working 'across the spectrum of policy issues to ensure that the Stockholm Network continues to promote its work and develop support across a range of constituencies and interests'.[10] Various sources cite Evans leaving the Centre for the New Europe in 2005, however his profile on the archived SN website shows that he 'retained his association' with the Centre for the New Europe, which had close ties with the SN, as a senior fellow. Presumably he left the Centre for the New Europe to join the Stockholm Network.
Helen Disney withdrew membership Stockholm Network membership from two think tanks closely associated with Tim Evans in 2009. These were the Libertarian Alliance and Nurses for Reform, membership was withdrawn because Disney 'felt we no longer had a shared vision of what the Stockholm Network was trying to achieve'.[11]
