At Flower Delivery Brent Cross, we recognize our collective responsibility to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in all aspects of our business. As a trusted florist serving Brent Cross households and local businesses, we are dedicated to upholding the highest ethical standards across our supply chain and daily operations. This Modern Slavery Statement confirms our steadfast zero-tolerance stance on all forms of slavery and sets out the steps we take to protect vulnerable individuals and foster transparency.
We operate a strict zero-tolerance policy toward modern slavery, forced labour, and human trafficking. This means that we refuse to condone or allow any form of exploitation within our organisation or supply chains, whether direct or indirect. We expect all team members, suppliers, and partners to share this commitment, understanding that any non-compliance could result in the termination of business relationships.
Our supplier relationships are central to how we keep our promise to customers and our community. We apply a rigorous due diligence process when selecting new suppliers, ensuring they share our values and adhere to local and international laws regarding labour and human rights. All suppliers are required to confirm in writing that they do not engage in modern slavery or human trafficking practices. Additionally, we conduct regular reviews and ask suppliers to provide relevant documentation or certifications to evidence their ongoing compliance.
Our employees are vital to the detection and prevention of modern slavery. We invest in regular staff training to build awareness of the signs of exploitation and the importance of ethical sourcing. Induction programs and refresher courses educate staff on how to spot potential risks, whether in our workforce or supply chain. This training fosters a proactive culture where every member of the Flower Delivery Brent Cross team understands their responsibility to act if they observe any suspicious practices.
We encourage all employees, suppliers, and even customers to report concerns or suspicions related to modern slavery without fear of reprisal. Flower Delivery Brent Cross has established clear internal reporting channels, ensuring that any issues are investigated quickly and confidentially by senior management. We are committed to acting on all raised concerns and, when necessary, referring cases to appropriate authorities to ensure proper resolution and protection of affected individuals.
We believe in constant vigilance and strive for ongoing improvement. This Modern Slavery Statement, along with our anti-slavery practices, is reviewed annually by management. The annual review considers new legislation, emerging risks, feedback from stakeholders, and the findings from supplier assessments. Action plans are developed, where required, to address areas for improvement and to adapt our procedures in line with changing best practices.
Flower Delivery Brent Cross serves a diverse and vibrant community of households and businesses in Brent Cross. We understand that our reputation depends upon our integrity, ethical conduct, and deep respect for human rights. This statement reflects our ongoing responsibility as a local florist to ensure that everyone in our network, from growers to arrangers to delivery staff and our valued customers, is protected against the risks of modern slavery.
This statement is effective from the date of publication and will be updated annually to reflect our evolving practices and commitment to combatting modern slavery in all its forms.
