At Ealing Florist, we recognise our responsibility as a trusted local business, delivering flowers and services to households and companies throughout the Ealing community. We are fully committed to ensuring that all aspects of our operations and supply chains are free from any form of modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, or exploitation. We operate a zero tolerance policy towards these serious issues and expect the same high standards from every person or organisation we work with, both directly and indirectly.
We understand that modern slavery can manifest in many forms and may be challenging to identify. To help prevent this, we take diligent steps to vet and monitor our suppliers. Whenever we engage with a new supplier or renew agreements with existing partners, we conduct risk assessments that examine labour practices, recruitment procedures, and ethical standards. We only work with organisations who share our values and can demonstrate clear compliance with anti-slavery laws and ethical employment practices. Where necessary, we seek confirmations and evidence that suppliers operate policies aligned with our own commitments.
We recognise that raising awareness among our staff is crucial to identifying and preventing modern slavery. Ealing Florist invests in ongoing training for all team members, ensuring employees—at every level—understand what modern slavery is, how to recognise its signs, and what actions to take should they have concerns. Regular training sessions and updates keep the issue at the forefront of daily business operations and promote a culture of vigilance, responsibility, and respect for all individuals within our sphere of influence.
We actively encourage anyone connected to Ealing Florist—employees, temporary staff, or suppliers—to report any suspicions or evidence of modern slavery without fear of retaliation or discrimination. We have clear internal channels for raising concerns in a confidential manner, as well as access to independent advice where appropriate. Every report is taken seriously, investigated promptly, and followed up with any necessary remedial action. Protection for whistleblowers is a cornerstone of our commitment to ethical conduct.
Ealing Florist understands that the fight against modern slavery and human trafficking is ongoing. To ensure the continued effectiveness of our policies and procedures, we review this statement and our accompanying practices annually. These reviews enable us to assess emerging risks, incorporate lessons learned, and make improvements where needed. Senior management is actively involved in this process, ensuring modern slavery remains a central concern in the running of our business.
As an established florist serving Ealing’s residents and businesses, we recognise that our reputation is built not just on the beauty of our products but on the integrity of our operations. This Modern Slavery Statement reflects our ethical and social responsibility to protect those within our supply chains and community. We are determined to uphold these standards in every aspect of our business and expect all those we work with to do the same, reaffirming our commitment to a safe, fair, and just environment for everyone we serve and employ.
