NHS Wellbeing Days
Designed specifically for the people who care for everyone else.
NHS staff experience some of the highest levels of occupational stress in the UK. Our NHS Wellbeing Days are built specifically for the frontline — combining the science of stress, burnout recovery, nutrition and resilience into a full-day immersive experience that gives NHS teams the tools they genuinely need, delivered with the urgency and respect their work deserves.

Who is it for?
For NHS Trusts, ICBs and frontline healthcare teams
We have delivered wellbeing days for nurses, doctors, paramedics, midwives, allied health professionals, administrative staff and NHS leadership teams. Every session is tailored to the specific role, pressures and culture of your team.
Jeannette Jackson has been working with NHS teams for over a decade — including St John Ambulance and North West Ambulance Service — and brings deep understanding of the unique stressors facing healthcare workers.
Our NHS Wellbeing Days can be delivered on-site at your Trust, at an off-site venue, or as a hybrid programme. We work within NHS budgets and can align to your current staff wellbeing strategy and NHS People Plan commitments.

The evidence
Why NHS staff wellbeing is a clinical priority
Patient safety
Research shows that burned-out healthcare workers make significantly more clinical errors. Staff wellbeing is not separate from patient safety — it is central to it. Investing in your people protects your patients.
Retention crisis
The NHS is losing experienced staff at an alarming rate. Burnout is the leading cause of early departure. Organisations that invest in staff wellbeing retain more people — reducing the cost of recruitment, agency spend and knowledge loss.
Shift work biology
Irregular shift patterns disrupt circadian rhythms, suppress immune function and accelerate burnout. NHS staff face a unique biological challenge — and generic wellbeing programmes don't address it. Ours do.
Compassion fatigue
Frontline healthcare workers are at high risk of secondary traumatic stress and compassion fatigue. Without targeted intervention, these conditions worsen over time — undermining both staff and patient outcomes.
