While searching for HR news on Reddit in late 2017, I realised nothing was dedicated to professionals in the UK human resources space. r/humanresources catered mainly to a US audience, with content reflecting its US membership. This made it challenging to find UK-specific topics with Reddit's conversation style.

To address this, I created r/HumanResourcesUK.

This was not a commercial idea. The goal was to create a virtual space where HR professionals in the UK could gather to share new ideas and resources. It was intended to grow organically with many UK HR professionals' collective wisdom and experience.

The strategy was a success.

Today, r/HumanResourcesUK has over 10,000 members, with contemporary topics and active discussions covering all areas of UK HR. Moderation is minimal, with the only major rule being no promotion or advertisement of commercial HRIS software. Members can also flag posts they feel do not belong in the community.

Why not visit r/HumanResourcesUK and see what is going on in UK HR?
