Modern Slavery Statement – Flower Delivery Farnborough

Introduction to Our Commitment

At Flower Delivery Farnborough, we hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards in every aspect of our business operations. As a trusted florist serving Farnborough’s residents and businesses, we are committed to combatting all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chains. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out our policies, actions, and continuous development in eliminating these practices, in line with our position as a responsible local provider.

Zero Tolerance Policy

We have a clear and unequivocal zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and child labour. This policy applies to all aspects of our organisation and anyone who works with us. Our approach is underpinned by our company values of honesty, respect, and fairness, which we believe our staff, customers, suppliers, and local community expect and deserve.

Supplier Due Diligence and Risk Assessment

Recognising the complexities of supply chains, Flower Delivery Farnborough is dedicated to working only with partners who share our commitment to eradicating modern slavery. Before entering into business relationships, we conduct due diligence checks on all suppliers to assess the risk and presence of modern slavery and human trafficking practices. Suppliers are required to confirm their compliance with anti-slavery laws and provide evidence of their own due diligence processes. Should any risks be identified, we will take appropriate action, up to and including termination of business relationships.

Staff Awareness and Training

All staff at Flower Delivery Farnborough receive regular training on recognising signs of modern slavery, human trafficking, and exploitation. Awareness programs ensure that our employees understand the importance of vigilance in the workplace and when interacting with our supply partners. This training empowers our team members to identify and report any concerns promptly and appropriately.

Reporting Channels and Protection

We have established clear and accessible channels for staff, suppliers, and customers to raise any concerns related to modern slavery either within our business or throughout our supply chain. These reporting mechanisms are confidential, and we ensure anyone reporting in good faith is protected against retaliation or discrimination. Every report is taken seriously, investigated, and dealt with according to established procedures.

Annual Statement Review and Continuous Improvement

This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed at least annually to ensure it remains effective and relevant. We regularly assess our policies and practices, taking feedback from stakeholders and new developments in legislation into account. Flower Delivery Farnborough is committed to ongoing improvement, updating training and supplier engagement as necessary to strengthen our ability to prevent modern slavery and protect those impacted by it.

Reflecting Our Local Responsibility

Our actions against modern slavery reflect not just legal compliance, but our deep responsibility to the Farnborough community we serve. As a trusted local florist, we strive to maintain the confidence of both households and businesses by leading with integrity and transparency. We thank our customers, staff, and partners for their shared commitment in creating a business that is safe and just for all.
