Flower Delivery Catford is committed to playing an active role in the fight against modern slavery and human trafficking. We recognise our responsibility as a trusted Catford florist, dedicated to serving local households and businesses. As such, we uphold the highest ethical standards across all operations and are resolute in our efforts to ensure that modern slavery has no place in our business or supply chains.
We operate under a strict zero tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. This position applies to our in-house practices as well as throughout our entire supply chain. Any form of forced labour, slavery, servitude, or human trafficking is strictly prohibited and will not be condoned under any circumstances.
Our relationships with suppliers and service providers are built on trust and transparency. We conduct due diligence on all existing and new suppliers to assess their compliance with our standards regarding modern slavery. This includes reviewing their own ethical policies, seeking assurance that they, too, adopt zero tolerance towards modern slavery, and requesting relevant documentation where applicable. We reserve the right to terminate relationships with suppliers who fail to meet our standards or are found to be complicit, deliberately or unknowingly, in practices connected to modern slavery or human trafficking.
Our team members receive training and guidance on how to recognise and respond to signs of modern slavery. This encompasses information on relevant laws, the forms that modern slavery may take—such as forced or compulsory labour, debt bondage, or child labour—and what actions should be taken if any suspicious activity is identified. Through ongoing training, staff are equipped to act as the first line of defence in upholding our ethical obligations.
Flower Delivery Catford encourages all employees, suppliers, and partners to speak up if they have concerns about potential breaches of our modern slavery policy. We provide clear and confidential channels for reporting any suspicions or incidents. All concerns raised are handled sensitively, thoroughly investigated, and never result in victimisation or negative repercussions for those reporting in good faith.
We recognise that ongoing vigilance is crucial in the fight against modern slavery. This statement and our internal practices are reviewed annually to assess their effectiveness and identify opportunities for improvement. Significant changes in legislation or best practice guidance are also reflected promptly. By doing so, we strive to strengthen our protective measures and maintain leadership in tackling modern slavery in our industry and community.
Serving Catford’s households and businesses is both a privilege and a responsibility. Flower Delivery Catford is deeply committed to ethical best practices, ensuring that our flowers—and every part of our operations—adhere to principles of fairness, dignity, and respect. This Modern Slavery Statement is a reflection of our ongoing dedication to the community we serve, and our determination to act as a responsible local business trusted by all.
