Modern Slavery Statement – Our Commitment and Actions

Introduction

At Flower Delivery Stamford Hill, we are committed to conducting our business ethically and responsibly, ensuring that modern slavery and human trafficking have no place in any part of our operations or supply chains. As a trusted florist serving Stamford Hill's households and businesses, we recognise our responsibility to uphold the highest standards of integrity and fairness.

Zero Tolerance Policy

We maintain a strict zero tolerance policy towards any form of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking within our organisation or among any of our suppliers. This commitment applies to all staff, suppliers, contractors, and business partners. We will take immediate, appropriate action should any evidence of modern slavery arise, including ceasing business relationships where necessary.

Supplier Due Diligence

Our supply chain relies on a network of trusted suppliers who share our values and standards. We conduct diligent checks on all new suppliers and regularly review our existing partners. This process includes assessing supplier policies, documentation, and practices regarding fair treatment, employment standards, and human rights. We seek to work only with those who can demonstrate a clear commitment to eradicating modern slavery and who are transparent in their operations.

Staff Training and Awareness

We invest in ongoing training for all members of our team, ensuring that they understand the risks and signs of modern slavery, as well as our policies and reporting procedures. Training modules are reviewed and updated annually or as new risks emerge. By empowering our employees and encouraging vigilance, we strengthen our collective ability to prevent and address any instances of exploitation.

Reporting Channels

At Flower Delivery Stamford Hill, we have established clear and confidential channels for reporting concerns related to modern slavery, whether from employees, suppliers, or third parties. All reports are taken seriously, investigated promptly, and handled sensitively. We are committed to protecting those who raise genuine concerns from any form of retaliation.

Annual Review and Continuous Improvement

Each year, we review our modern slavery statement and the effectiveness of our related practices. This review takes into account any changes in legislation, best practice guidelines, and feedback from our staff and supply partners. Lessons learned are used to improve our systems and processes, ensuring continued vigilance and adaptation.

Our Responsibility as a Stamford Hill Florist

As a local florist serving Stamford Hill, we recognise that our reputation is built not only on the quality of our flowers, but on the trust our community places in us to act ethically. Upholding our responsibility to combat modern slavery reflects the values we share with our customers, both households and businesses. We remain committed to transparency, accountability, and the highest standards in all that we do.
