1 April 2026 marks a significant milestone for US2U Consulting as the business celebrates its 20th anniversary, having been founded in 2006 by Rachel Blackburn MBE.
Over the past two decades, US2U Consulting has worked with organisations across the UK and internationally, supporting leaders and teams to strengthen performance, make better strategic decisions and achieve sustainable growth. Built on a commitment to delivering practical, tailored consultancy, the business has developed long-standing relationships with clients across a wide range of sectors.
Reflecting on the anniversary, Rachel Blackburn highlighted the importance of the people and partnerships that have shaped the journey so far. She noted that the success of US2U Consulting has been built on collaboration - with clients, partners, suppliers and colleagues all playing a vital role in helping the business grow and evolve over the past 20 years.
To mark the occasion, Rachel met with members of the Broadland and South Norfolk Council Economic Development Team (pictured with Rachel below), recognising the strong local connections that have supported the business since its early days. US2U Consulting has always been based in the Broadland area of Norfolk, and the relationship with the local economic development team has played an important role in supporting both the company and its clients.
Jane Bagley from the Economic Development Team commented: “It was great to be able to celebrate US2U Consulting’s 20th anniversary and to discuss an exciting future of collaboration.”
Rachel added: “The Economic Development Team at Broadland and South Norfolk Council have supported our business and some of our clients over several years, providing access to relevant grants that have enabled our growth and resilience.”
The anniversary was also marked with a celebratory cake featuring US2U Consulting’s signature jigsaw pieces - reflecting the company’s long-standing belief that it can be the missing piece for organisations seeking to unlock growth, overcome challenges and achieve their goals.
As we celebrate this milestone, US2U Consulting would like to thank everyone who has been involved with or supported our journey over the last twenty years. We look forward to continuing to making a positive difference for organisations.
