Florist Chadwell Heath is dedicated to upholding the highest ethical standards in our business operations and throughout our supply chains. We acknowledge our responsibility as a trusted Chadwell Heath florist serving local households and businesses, and we recognise the pivotal role we play in the community to prevent and address all forms of modern slavery—including slavery, forced labour, servitude, and human trafficking. This statement outlines the steps we take annually to ensure slavery and human trafficking do not take place within our own business or in any part of our supply chain.
We have a strict zero tolerance approach to modern slavery, both in our direct business and with all third parties we engage with. Every member of our team understands that any form of modern slavery is unacceptable and will not be tolerated under any circumstances. Our policy aligns with the Modern Slavery Act and reflects both our values and our legal responsibilities as a responsible business in Chadwell Heath.
As an independent florist, we work with a range of suppliers, from flower growers to logistics partners. We carefully assess the ethical credentials of all our suppliers as part of our onboarding process and ongoing reviews. These assessments include requiring supplier declarations regarding compliance with anti-slavery laws, evaluating their work practices, and, where feasible, seeking evidence of their own modern slavery policies. Suppliers found to be non-compliant or unable to meet our expectations may have their contracts terminated. We believe ethical sourcing is a fundamental part of supplying flowers and gifts to our valued customers in Chadwell Heath and beyond.
Our staff are crucial to identifying any signs of modern slavery within our operations and supply chain. We provide regular training and information sessions to ensure all team members understand what modern slavery is, how to recognise its signs, and what actions to take if they have any concerns. Training is refreshed annually, ensuring our employees remain vigilant and empowered to speak up if they observe any practices that may indicate forced or unethical labour.
Florist Chadwell Heath encourages all employees, suppliers, and community members to raise concerns about modern slavery with confidence. We have established clear and accessible internal reporting channels so that anyone can report suspicions or evidence of modern slavery anonymously if preferred. All reports are treated seriously, investigated promptly and thoroughly, and the appropriate actions are taken to safeguard those affected and prevent recurrence.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed every year to ensure it remains up-to-date with current legislation, best practice, and our own evolving business activities. Each review considers feedback from staff, suppliers, and customers, as well as any incidents or identified risks, enabling us to continuously improve our approach to tackling modern slavery. We are committed to transparency and accountability, updating our practices to ensure we always act in line with our core values of respect, integrity, and community responsibility.
As a proudly local florist, we are deeply committed to making a positive impact within Chadwell Heath. Our robust approach to preventing modern slavery underlines our dedication to serving local households and businesses not only with beautiful floral arrangements but also with principled and ethical service. We thank you for trusting Florist Chadwell Heath, and we pledge to continually uphold your trust and the wellbeing of all those who help us deliver our services.
