Some group’s endeavouring to pass to a higher place (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

upsend

'pass to a higher place' is the definition.
(send upwards)

'some group's endeavouring to' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some of the parts of the word are used).
'UPSEND' is hidden in the letters of 'groups endeavouring to'.

(Another definition for upsend that I've seen is " promotion".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
