Flowers Kentish Town is dedicated to ensuring that modern slavery, human trafficking, and forced labour play no part in our business or our supply chains. As a trusted florist serving the Kentish Town community—local households, families, and businesses—our ethical stance is central to how we do business.
Modern slavery, in all of its forms, is absolutely unacceptable. Flowers Kentish Town maintains a zero tolerance policy regarding slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour and human trafficking. Every member of our team, from management to new starters, echoes this commitment without exception. We expect the same uncompromising stance from every supplier and partner who works with us.
We recognise that our greatest exposure to risks of slavery and human trafficking lies within our supply chains. As such, we conduct appropriate due diligence on suppliers before entering into agreements. This includes verifying they uphold ethical practices, reviewing their own modern slavery statements, and seeking reassurances that fair employment conditions are in place. Throughout our ongoing relationships, we monitor supplier conduct and take immediate corrective action if we have any concerns relating to their employment practices.
All Flowers Kentish Town staff receive training on what constitutes modern slavery and human trafficking, how it can affect individuals, and how to recognise warning signs both within our own operations and within the broader flower and horticulture industry. We encourage vigilance and reinforce that every employee is empowered to challenge and report unethical practices at any level.
We have established confidential reporting channels to enable our staff, suppliers, and the wider community to raise concerns safely regarding any suspicions or evidence of modern slavery or exploitation. All disclosures will be taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. Where incidents or potential risks are identified, decisive steps will be enacted in line with our zero tolerance approach, which may include reporting to relevant authorities and terminating supplier contracts.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually or in response to significant changes in our business or legal context. As a visible statement of our ongoing responsibility, we ensure it remains fit for purpose, reflecting both best practice and legal requirements. We also look to strengthen our policies and procedures in line with developing understanding and emerging risks in the industry.
As a long-standing business in Kentish Town, Flowers Kentish Town understands that maintaining trust goes beyond our products and shapes our entire approach. Our commitment to preventing modern slavery is integral to our values as a conscientious local florist. We serve our customers, neighbours, and local businesses knowing that ethical business practices are the foundation of our reputation and our future.
