Who We Are

Lifting Souls is a community-rooted, heart-led Community Interest Company dedicated to making holistic wellness accessible to those who need it most. We believe that healing is a right—not a luxury—and we work to remove the financial and systemic barriers that prevent people from accessing the care they deserve.

As a Community Interest Company, we operate as a not-for-profit social enterprise. This means our work is mission-driven, and any surplus we generate is reinvested into expanding our services and deepening our impact. Our legal structure ensures that our focus remains on community benefit—not private profit.

Our work is grounded in compassion, cultural sensitivity, and a deep respect for the lived experiences of the communities we serve.

How We Started

Although Lifting Souls was officially founded in 2025, our story began years earlier. Our founder, a dedicated volunteer and holistic practitioner, began offering chair yoga and Reiki to vulnerable women through the Nafsiyat Women Group. These sessions offered more than just relaxation—they created a space where participants felt seen, cared for, and gently encouraged to reconnect with themselves.

This experience revealed a powerful truth: when people feel safe, supported, and valued, the journey of self-healing begins. That insight inspired the creation of a sustainable model to ensure continuity, fair practitioner pay, and long-term access to wellness for those who need it most.

What We Do

We provide free, trauma-informed, and culturally sensitive holistic wellness services to underserved communities by partnering with charities, housing associations, and care organisations. Our services are delivered by a network of qualified, fairly paid practitioners who are passionate about making a difference.

We’re also committed to adapting our offerings to meet the unique needs of each community. If you're a charity with a specific wellness need —or a practitioner with a service you'd love to offer— we welcome your ideas and collaboration. Together, we can co-create solutions that truly serve.

Who We Serve

We focus on supporting adult women who have experienced trauma—including domestic abuse, displacement, or other life-altering events—and who are already on a path of recovery.

We specifically work with:

  • Women from low-income or marginalised backgrounds

  • Survivors of trauma

  • Women who cannot afford private wellness services

We are also open to working with other vulnerable adults whose well-being may benefit from holistic support. If you're a charity or care organisation supporting a specific group, we welcome conversations about how we can tailor our services to meet your community’s needs.

How We Work

Our model is simple, sustainable, and impact-driven:

  • We partner with organisations based in London that are already supporting vulnerable adults, and that are on a path of recovery.

  • Our practitioners travel to the organisation’s premises to deliver services in familiar, accessible environments.

  • We recruit and fairly pay qualified practitioners who align with our values.

  • We are funded by public grants and private donations, ensuring our services remain free for those who need them.

This approach allows us to meet people where they are—literally and emotionally—creating safe, trusted spaces for healing and connection.

Our Vision

We envision a society where wellness and self-care are not privileges, but accessible rights. While other organisations may offer low-cost services, Lifting Souls is one of the few that provides holistic care entirely free to those who cannot afford it.

We aim to expand our reach, deepen our partnerships, and continue building a network of practitioners who believe in healing through compassion, presence, and community.
