At Florists Clapham, our role as a trusted florist for Clapham’s households and businesses extends beyond providing beautiful floral arrangements. We recognise our responsibility to operate ethically and transparently, actively opposing all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines the actions and commitments we have in place to prevent modern slavery within our business and our supply chains.
Florists Clapham upholds a strict zero tolerance policy when it comes to modern slavery and human trafficking. Whether it is within our own operations, among our suppliers, or throughout the supply chains connected to our services, we do not condone or permit any practices that exploit individuals or violate their basic rights. These values are embedded in our business culture and are a fundamental part of how we conduct our daily activities.
We understand that our floral products and related goods often come from diverse sources. To ensure our commitment to anti-slavery principles, we conduct due diligence on all suppliers before any business relationship is established. Our vetting procedures require suppliers to confirm that they comply with relevant modern slavery laws and adhere to ethical labour practices. We continue to monitor established suppliers, seeking transparency and traceability throughout our procurement activities. Any supplier found to be in breach of our standards risks immediate termination of our relationship.
All members of the Florists Clapham team undergo regular training to increase awareness of modern slavery and human trafficking. This training covers how to identify risk factors, what warning signs to watch for, and how to respond if concerns arise. By equipping our team with this knowledge, we empower them to help prevent, recognise, and appropriately address any potential cases of modern slavery in our workplace or supply chain.
Florists Clapham maintains open and accessible reporting channels for all staff, customers, and suppliers to raise concerns confidentially about potential modern slavery risks or incidents. We actively encourage whistleblowing and protect individuals who come forward with concerns. Each report is investigated with urgency and, if necessary, escalated to relevant authorities for further action. We are committed to taking all allegations seriously and ensuring corrective measures are implemented promptly where appropriate.
Our Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure that it remains effective and reflective of emerging risks and best practice guidelines. As part of our commitment to continuous improvement, we actively seek feedback from our staff, suppliers, and the wider community, adjusting our processes accordingly to uphold our ethical obligations.
As a longstanding florist serving Clapham’s homes and businesses, we believe our modern slavery commitments are fundamental to the trust placed in us by the community. We are proud of the proactive role we play in supporting human rights, dignity, and fairness in every aspect of our business. This statement reaffirms our dedication to maintaining the highest standards of integrity and social responsibility across our operations and those of our partners.
