Testimonials
Charles – Director – Hydrotech UK LtdI own a manufacturing business in Bradford with 30 employees, many of whom are involved providing mobile engineering services across the UK.
We also benefit from a strong and experienced management team. I would recommend Breathing Space HR to any business for several reasons, here are just a few:
- They provide unambigious, clear and up to date advice quickly and in a friendly manner followed up by “easy-to-tweak” templates.
- Collectively they possess vast experience from many sectors gathered from working with businesses large and small
- There is a good team spirit where each member supports the other – this results in them over-delivering on the promises they make regarding timelines.
- Their “pay-up-front” flexible package offers excellent value compared with what I have found elsewhere (over the last 20 years).

David Farley — General Manager — Enitial“Engaging with the Breathing Space team and with Chrissie Yates as my main contact, I am impressed with the level of professionalism and output that we receive. Most importantly, they clearly have sound industry experience; with the much needed, (and so often rare), ability to appropriately balance business need against the softer people skill requirements. Their knowledge and guidance inspires the confidence required to deliver the changes required.”
Liam Vasey — Chief Financial Officer — Vintage Cash Cow“It was only after working with Breathing Space HR for the first month that we realised how much we had been missing! This knowledge gap within our Business has been filled by Breathing Space seamlessly. Everything seems to run so smoothly now: from on-boarding, issuing contracts, offer letters and the many other services they provide as part of the package. For more complex situations we know we can rely on them to provide sound advice. And when running a business with 50+ staff that is very reassuring.”
Peter C. Wulff — Managing Director — JenaValve Production Limited“We have worked with Chrissie Yates and Breathing Space HR since 2015 and have a great and collaborative relationship. Chrissie and her team provide a refreshingly straightforward approach and provides clear advice for both managers and employees. The team has deftly guided us through the growing pains of developing and growing our operations and capabilities. Chrissie’s attention to detail and employment law knowledge prevents issues escalating. Her approach adjusts depending on the situation and person to protect all facets employee relations. Her flexibility, and that of the rest of the team at BSHR, is greatly appreciated.”

Rachel Woolf — Founder — Street Storage“Thank you so much to the team at Breathing Space HR. The How to HR portal/resource is so brilliant, especially for smaller organisations like ours who can’t afford HR resources as much as we would like to but who value our teams just as much, if not more, than larger organisations! You are absolutely right that HR concerns keep business and not-for-profit owners like me up at night, amongst a load of other things (!), but this resource will be so useful.”
