Andy Knox is a husband, a dad and a friend. He is also Associate Medical Director in the Lancashire and South Cumbria ICB, a GP Partner at Ash Trees Surgery, Carnforth and our Chair of Trustee for The Well.
His work is primarily focused on improving population health and tackling health inequity.
He co-founded the LSC Population Health Leadership Academy, is Population Health Associate at the King’s Fund, Associate at the Centre for Population Health, on the faculty of the Institute for Health Improvement, a member of the NHS Assembly, Chair of The Well Communities, part of the Poverty Truth Commission and Senior Lecturer in Sociology and Health at Lancaster University.
He has recently published his first book, ‘Sick Society’ - www.drandyknox.com/sicksocietybook.
He is impressively tall when sat down, but disappointingly short when stood up and has a ridiculously loud laugh.
He is often found singing on walks with his Springer Spaniel and Labradoodle around the beauty that is Morecambe Bay.
He was recently awarded an MBE in the King’s Birthday Honours list for services to Primary Care and Health Inequalities.
His claim to fame is that his Grandpa invented Fairy Liquid and his cousin won the Great British Bake Off - 2019 before you ask!
