# The Uplifting Partnership
The Uplifting Partnership is a London-based consultancy that uniquely bridges business strategy and employee wellness. Founded in 2017, the firm combines Neil A Lavender Jones's 35 years of global executive experience across industrial, scientific, and semiconductor sectors with Mariko Lavender Jones's expertise as a qualified yoga therapist and instructor since 2002.
The business serves companies at critical inflection points—whether early-stage startups seeking structural foundations or established organisations that have outgrown their current operational frameworks. Rather than treating business development and employee wellbeing as separate concerns, The Uplifting Partnership integrates both, recognising that sustainable growth depends on motivated, healthy teams operating within well-governed environments.
What distinguishes them is this deliberate fusion of disciplines. While traditional management consultancies focus purely on strategy and operations, and wellness providers typically work in isolation, this partnership addresses the complete organisational ecosystem. Their approach recognises that sustainable scaling requires not just sound business architecture but also a workforce that is physically and mentally resilient, values-aligned, and genuinely engaged.
Based in Southdean Gardens, Wimbledon, they work collaboratively with clients, preferring in-person engagement to understand specific challenges before designing bespoke solutions. Their mission centres on helping companies realise their full potential through integrated business and wellness strategies that drive genuine, balanced growth.
