At Flower Delivery Blackfriars, we recognise our duty to operate ethically and with integrity at every level of our business. Serving households and businesses in Blackfriars and surrounding communities, we are dedicated to upholding human rights and preventing all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking within our operations and supply chains.
We maintain a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and child labour. This stance applies not only within our own organisation but also extends to all individuals and businesses we engage with. Any evidence or suspicion of such practices will be met with immediate action, including ceasing relationships with offending parties and reporting issues to the proper authorities.
Our commitment to ethical sourcing is embedded in our supplier selection process. We require all our suppliers, particularly those providing flowers and associated products, to adhere to modern slavery legislation and our own ethical standards. Prospective suppliers undergo thorough checks, including assessments of their labour practices and compliance with relevant laws. We periodically review active suppliers, ensuring they continue to meet our expectations regarding the fair treatment of workers and avoidance of exploitative practices.
We believe that informed and vigilant staff are critical to identifying and preventing modern slavery risks. Our employees receive training to increase their awareness about the signs of modern slavery and trafficking, both in the workplace and throughout our supply chain. Regular refresher sessions and updated materials help ensure that staff remain equipped to recognise and respond to potential issues appropriately.
Flower Delivery Blackfriars encourages a culture of openness. Employees, suppliers, and members of the local community are empowered to raise concerns about modern slavery or unethical behaviour, confident that reports will be handled sensitively and without fear of retaliation. Dedicated reporting channels are available and all concerns are taken seriously, investigated promptly, and acted upon where necessary. Any findings of modern slavery will lead to immediate internal reviews and cooperation with regulatory bodies.
To ensure ongoing effectiveness, our Modern Slavery Statement and related policies are reviewed and updated annually. We take into account legislative changes, evolving best practices, and feedback from staff, suppliers, and stakeholders. These reviews allow us to continuously strengthen our procedures, adapt to new challenges, and further embed ethical standards throughout our business and supply chain.
As a trusted local florist in Blackfriars, we understand that our community looks to us as a responsible business partner. We are committed to protecting the well-being and rights of individuals both within our own team and throughout our supply network. This Modern Slavery Statement reflects our ongoing promise to act as an ethical, conscientious business serving the needs of families and organisations in Blackfriars and beyond.
