As we close out Embracing Change for another month, another significant round of Employment Rights Act 2025 changes comes into force from 30 October.

These include strengthened duties around preventing sexual harassment and third-party harassment, alongside further trade union reforms.

If you haven't looked at what these changes mean for your business yet, now's the time. We'll be covering the changes properly in this month's newsletter.

Change doesn't always wait for you to be ready for it. Sometimes the best thing you can do is stay one step ahead.

Get ahead of it — sign up for the full breakdown:

Not every change needs a plan, a rollout and a review meeting.

Sometimes it's one small thing: a form that gets digitised, a process that gets simplified, a habit that gets dropped because it stopped making sense somewhere along the way.

Those count too, and they're usually far easier to make stick than a big overhaul.

The trick is actually noticing them. Most businesses have at least one process that's stayed the same simply because nobody's stopped to ask why, not because it's still the best way of doing things.

What's one small change worth making in your business before the year's out?

3 things that changed when we started using Breathe.

Not a sales pitch — just what's actually different day to day.

Holiday requests: these used to involve a whiteboard and a bit of guesswork.

Now they're booked, approved and visible without the back-and-forth.

Onboarding paperwork: no more print, sign, scan, re-send.

Contracts and policies can be signed electronically, so new starters aren't left waiting around before day one.

People Portal: our team can manage everyday HR tasks with far less chasing, including requesting leave and accessing the information they need on the go.

Small changes. Less admin. More time for the work that actually matters.

Ready to make the switch?

The evenings are drawing in and routines are shifting for a lot of teams right now — darker starts, shorter days and the general adjustment that comes with the change of season.

It's worth a quick check-in with your team about how they're actually doing.

Not because anything's necessarily wrong, but because this kind of thing is easy to miss until it becomes a bigger issue further down the line.

A five-minute conversation now, whether that's a quick chat in passing or a proper one-to-one, can catch something small before it becomes something that needs a lot more managing. Small check-ins now save bigger conversations later.

Not sure how to start that conversation? Get in touch. We can help you approach it the right way.

Some news we’re really pleased to share 🎉

When Katie Wakefield first joined us, the plan was simple. She’d get some hands-on experience with us while she looked for a full-time admin role elsewhere.

Things didn’t quite go to plan, in the best possible way.

Katie turned out to be exactly the kind of person every small team hopes to find. Hard working, resourceful, keen to learn, and happy to pick up whatever lands on her desk (and in a small business, a lot lands on that desk). So, we did the sensible thing and asked her to stay before anyone else could snap her up.

We’re delighted to say she said yes. Katie is now our permanent, part-time Office Administrator, and she’s increasing her hours with us, too.

You won’t often see Katie on the client side of things, though plenty of what keeps KMHR running smoothly has her fingerprints on it.

Behind every responsive HR service there’s someone making sure the right things happen at the right time, and for us, that’s Katie.

The whole team is thrilled, and we’re looking forward to seeing how her role grows from here.

Welcome to the team properly, Katie. We’re very glad you’re staying 💙

Change fatigue is real, and it tends to creep in when a team's been through one adjustment after another without much of a break in between.

New systems, new processes, a reshuffle here and there — on their own, all manageable. Stacked on top of each other with no pause, they start to wear people down, even when each individual change was a good one.

A few things help: spacing changes out where you can, being upfront about what's coming next so it doesn't feel like a surprise every time, and actually checking in with people rather than assuming they're fine because nobody's said otherwise.

Change doesn't have to be exhausting. It just needs pacing.

If your team's feeling the strain of one change after another, get in touch. We can help you pace it properly.

What happens when a key member of your team isn't there tomorrow?

In the care sector, change doesn't always come with a warning.

A staff member calls in sick. Someone unexpectedly hands in their notice. A shift suddenly needs covering.

And when you're already managing staffing pressures, even one unexpected absence can have a significant impact.

The question isn't always *how do we manage change?* It's how prepared are we when change happens?

In our latest blog, KMHR founder Karen Mitchell explores what the care sector can teach us about managing unexpected change and why having the right people, processes and HR support in place before something goes wrong can make all the difference.

From succession planning and staffing arrangements to contracts, policies and contingency plans, it's about building a business that can adapt when the unexpected happens.

You can't always choose when change happens. You can choose how prepared your business is.

Good news! The Grove Summit 2026 is back with a new date, and we couldn’t be more excited.

Due to huge demand, Oxfordshire’s AI & Digital Marketing Summit for women in business has moved to Tuesday, 20th October, giving even more people the chance to join us.

If AI still feels like a foreign language, or you’re not quite sure how to make it work for you, this is the day that changes that.

You’ll learn from experts who actually use what they teach:

👉 Annette Gower (Digital Grove Academy) on practical AI and digital marketing skills
👉 Elizabeth Allison (AI Springboard) on AI governance
👉 Nicola Whybrow (House of Colour) on building confidence in your personal brand

We’re especially proud that our very own Karen Mitchell, founder of KMHR Solutions, will be speaking about how AI has helped our business. She’ll be sharing honest, real-world lessons from running an HR consultancy and putting AI into practice day to day.

The Women in Business panel and Q&A means you can bring your own questions and get answers that fit your goals, so you’ll walk away with advice you can actually use.

It’s all in a relaxed, welcoming setting with lunch, plenty of time to network, and yes, free parking!

Come along with your questions and doubts about AI. Leave with practical tools, real confidence and some brilliant new connections.

We can’t wait to see you there!

13/10/2026

A lot of small business owners have been running things the same way for 20 or 30 years — and there's nothing wrong with that, until it starts costing more time than it saves.

As an outsourced HR team, we see it constantly: AI and remote working get dismissed as things for bigger companies, or younger ones.

But the businesses that can benefit most are often exactly these ones — fewer people to spread the admin across, no dedicated IT support, and years of habits that quietly cost more time than anyone realises. It's usually the HR side where this shows up first.

A process that only works because one person remembers how to run it.

Onboarding that takes three times longer than it should. Leave requests chased over email because there's no simple system in place.

It's not about ripping everything up and starting again. It's picking one thing — a task that eats an hour every week — and asking whether there's now an easier way to do it.

Embracing change doesn't mean the business you built stops being yours. It just means it keeps working for you as things move on.

Not sure where to start? Get in touch and we'll help you find the one change worth making first.

It’s World Mental Health Day — a good moment to think about the people behind every workplace change, not just the process on paper.

A restructure, a new system, a new manager — even positive changes can leave people feeling anxious, uncertain or unseen. Often, what makes the difference is how well people feel supported through it. Mental health at work isn’t just about big gestures or awareness days.

It’s in the small things: being told why something is happening, having space to ask questions, and knowing someone will actually listen to how you’re feeling about it.

People tend to cope better with change they understand than change that simply happens to them. When employees feel informed and heard, you’re not only supporting wellbeing — you’re building the trust that helps teams navigate uncertain periods together.

This World Mental Health Day, it’s worth asking: when change comes to your team, do people feel carried through it, or left to cope alone?

Not sure how to approach change with care for your team’s mental health?

Get in touch — that’s exactly the kind of conversation we’re here to help with.
