Florist East Sheen is committed to conducting all aspects of our business with the highest level of ethics and integrity. As a trusted local florist serving East Sheen households and businesses, we recognise our responsibility not just to our customers but also to our staff, suppliers, and the broader community. We are firmly opposed to all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking and pledge to do our part to ensure that neither is present in our operations or supply chains.
We maintain a zero tolerance policy toward modern slavery and human trafficking. This policy is embedded in our core values and business practices. We will never knowingly engage with suppliers or partners who do not share our fundamental commitment to human rights, dignity, and ethical labour practices. Any breach of this policy will lead to immediate action, including termination of contracts or relationships with offending parties.
At Florist East Sheen, we understand that much of the risk of modern slavery lies within supply chains. Therefore, we have developed a robust supplier due diligence process before entering into agreements with new suppliers, and we regularly monitor existing relationships. This includes:
We are committed to working only with suppliers who meet our strict criteria and who uphold similar commitments to eradicating modern slavery in their businesses.
We believe that awareness is a key factor in preventing modern slavery. All employees at Florist East Sheen receive regular training to help them recognise the signs of potential abuse or exploitation, both within our direct operations and those of our suppliers. This training covers the legal and ethical aspects of modern slavery, equipping our staff with the knowledge and confidence to act if they suspect any wrongdoing. Furthermore, training materials are updated annually to reflect any changes in legislation or emerging risks.
We have established clear and accessible channels for staff and stakeholders to raise concerns about possible modern slavery or related unethical conduct. We actively encourage a culture where everyone feels safe to report instances or suspicions of exploitation, either anonymously or in person, without fear of retaliation. All reports are taken seriously and investigated thoroughly, with appropriate actions taken in response to any substantiated concerns.
Florist East Sheen is committed to continuous improvement in our approach to tackling modern slavery. Our policies and procedures, including this Modern Slavery Statement, are reviewed annually to ensure their effectiveness and relevance. As legislation and industry best practices evolve, we revise our training, due diligence processes, and risk assessments accordingly. The annual review includes input from staff, management, and—where relevant—external advisors to ensure our approach remains robust and comprehensive.
As a long-established florist trusted by individuals and businesses across East Sheen, we take seriously our responsibility to uphold the highest standards of ethical conduct. Our approach to preventing modern slavery reflects our deep commitment to supporting both our local community and global human rights. We strive to set a positive example and to work only with those who share our values of respect, transparency, and fairness for all.
