New narratives for health

A New Community for Health Professionals

Wild-Ness Health is a grassroots movement based in the Scottish Highlands, dedicated to bringing health professionals, creative collaborators, and people with lived experience together to rethink healthcare.

Our Wild-Ness Collective is an online platform offering both on-demand and live learning, growing into a vibrant space where health professionals from anywhere can connect, learn, and grow. In-person events continue too, open to everyone—no membership needed.

Our work has been highlighted by:

  • The British Medical Association (BMA)
  • The Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP)
  • NHS Education for Scotland (NES)

What is Wild-Ness?

Why We Exist

Many of us feel stuck in systems that miss what really matters. We’re exhausted, patients feel unheard, and the system feels unsustainable. But it doesn’t have to stay this way. We’re shifting the focus to what matters most: sustainable, compassionate, and empowering care for both health professionals and patients.

What We Offer

  • Whole person CPD courses
  • Seasonal wellbeing retreats for health professionals
  • 1:1 coaching for personal and professional change
  • The annual Sustainable Healer Conference
  • The Wild-Ness Collective — our online membership platform and community (launching September 2025)

Our Approach

We focus on small, realistic, high-impact steps that you can use immediately—even in 10- or 15-minute NHS consultations.

Our tools and learning experiences are grounded in lived insights, creative reflection, and systems thinking. This isn’t about doing more—it’s about working in ways that align with your values, ease burnout, and bring meaning to your practice.

Immersive Retreats & Events

Rest, Reflect & Reset

Our retreats, online courses, coaching, and annual conference offer health professionals space to pause, reconnect with purpose, and explore more human, sustainable ways of working. Bespoke team events are also available.

Simple, Sustainable Practices

We focus on small, high-impact changes that require no costly training or extra workload. Gain practical tools, evidence-based frameworks, and fresh language to enhance everyday NHS consultations.

Connecting Policy to Practice

We create supportive spaces bridging government policy and clinical practice, fostering belonging and connection between health professionals and patients, while cultivating shared purpose for sustainable whole-person care.

Bespoke Support & Events
