UPPERDOGUK
Welcome to the world of Upperdog
Meet the team
We’re not keen on hiding away behind our keyboards; plus sitting down too much is bad for your posture. We like face-to-face meetings so we can really get to know you. Otherwise let's jump on Zoom, Teams, Google Meet… whatever floats your boat.
