Anja Porter
Board Member, Community Team
Wilderness Wellbeing Board Member
Anja brings two decades of experience across customer service and technology to Wilderness Wellbeing CIC — most recently as a Salesforce Solution Engineer, building digital tools and platforms that help organisations run better. It’s this same skillset she’s turned toward the CIC’s growth: as our Community Platform Manager, Anja built and now nurtures our online community on Heartbeat, giving members a space to stay connected and supported between events.
She previously grew a local walking group from scratch to nearly 150 members, demonstrating how powerful the right platform can be.
Nature has been central to Anja’s own wellbeing journey, and she’s happiest outdoors. Mental Health First Aid trained, she’s spent years exploring the relationship between people, nature, and technology, and believes strongly that time in wild places is a vital, often underused tool for resilience.
As Director and England Ambassador, Anja represents Wilderness Wellbeing across England, making the case that connection, nature, and good digital infrastructure can work together to make positive mental health accessible to everyone.
