About the CollectivE
The Northern Longevity Collective was created in response to a simple but important observation:
The health and wellbeing space has become increasingly difficult to navigate, and increasingly difficult to trust.
Across the North, there are exceptional professionals doing meaningful work. Clinicians, coaches, therapists, founders. But too often, that work exists in isolation.
At the same time, people are trying to navigate a landscape that has become noisy, trend-led, and full of conflicting advice with very little clarity on what actually holds up over time.
Bringing clarity to a fragmented space
There is no shortage of expertise.
What is missing is connection.
Different disciplines working separately.
Limited collaboration.
No shared standard.
The result is a space that feels disjointed, for both professionals and the people they serve.
Our collective goal
Our aim is to bring together the most credible and integral minds in health and wellbeing.
To create a network rooted in:
Evidence
Real-world experience
Shared standards
A space where disciplines connect, collaborate, and contribute to a more joined-up approach to health.
More than a network
We are building something that goes beyond conversation.
This is about raising the standard of what health looks like in practice.
Moving away from quick fixes.
Towards prevention, performance, and long-term healthspan.
The Collective exists for both:
Professionals
Looking to connect, collaborate, and contribute to a higher standard of work.
The wider public
Seeking clarity in a space that has become increasingly complex.
Our role is to create:
Clarity where there has been confusion
Connection where there has been fragmentation
Trust that feels earned
THE Founders
The Northern Longevity Collective is led by individuals working at the intersection of clinical practice, performance, and real-world experience.
It has been built by people who understand both the complexity of the space and the need for greater clarity, connection, and standards.
Dr Will Dawson
Doctor | The Hundred Society
Will is a doctor with nearly two decades of experience across general practice, lifestyle, and longevity medicine.
Alongside his clinical work, he has held senior leadership roles at executive level, shaping his understanding of performance, pressure, and how health fits into demanding environments.
His work is grounded in a clear reality:
High-performing people are often the ones who neglect their own health.
Not through lack of knowledge, but through a lack of structure, clarity, and consistent focus. This is something he has seen both in the people he works with and in his own life.
This perspective now underpins everything he does.
Will takes a long-term, evidence-based approach to health, acting as a personal advisor to individuals who want to improve how they feel and perform today, while protecting their future health.
His focus is on the fundamentals that matter, cutting through noise, avoiding quick fixes, and building sustainable change that lasts.
Louise Mortimer
Founder | The SPXCE
Louise is a breath practitioner, coach, and educator specialising in nervous system health, stress resilience, and human performance.
Her work sits at the intersection of science and somatics, using the body as the entry point for lasting change.
Her approach is grounded in lived experience.
After navigating her own challenges with anxiety, burnout, and disconnection, she developed a deep understanding that change is not about pushing harder, but about building capacity.
Learning how to regulate, recover, and reconnect became the foundation of her work.
She now supports individuals to move differently through life — not by removing stress, but by increasing their ability to meet it.
Her work is both practical and deeply human, focused on consistent, body-led practices that improve clarity, energy, and emotional resilience.
Together, they bring a combined perspective that bridges clinical expertise, performance, and lived experience, shaping a more connected, credible approach to health and wellbeing.
