Fitzrovia Flowers is proud to serve both households and businesses in the Fitzrovia community. As a trusted local florist, we recognise our responsibility to uphold ethical standards and support human rights throughout our operations. Part of our commitment involves taking meaningful action against modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms. This statement details the policies, procedures, and measures we have in place to prevent modern slavery within our business and supply chains.
Fitzrovia Flowers maintains a strict zero tolerance approach to any form of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking. This applies across all areas of our operations, and we expect the same high standards from all those we work with. We are dedicated to ensuring our flowers, products, and services are provided in a manner that respects the dignity and fundamental rights of all people involved in their creation and delivery. Where we identify any risk or evidence of modern slavery, we commit to taking immediate and decisive action.
We source our flowers and related products from a carefully chosen network of suppliers, both locally and internationally. Due diligence is a critical aspect of our procurement process. All suppliers are required to confirm their compliance with anti-slavery and human trafficking laws and regulations. We seek assurances through contractual agreements and regular communication, asking for details on their own supply chain management practices. Where necessary, we may request audits or additional information to ensure ongoing compliance. Any supplier found to be involved in, or unable to demonstrate active prevention of, modern slavery will be excluded from our supply chain.
Education is essential in the effort to eradicate modern slavery. Fitzrovia Flowers ensures that all staff receive regular training to recognise the signs of potential abuse, forced labour, or trafficking, both within our business and among suppliers. Training covers our policies, reporting procedures, and the potential indicators of modern slavery. We also promote a culture of openness and vigilance, encouraging staff at every level to ask questions and raise concerns as they arise.
Maintaining effective and accessible channels for reporting concerns is integral to our approach. All staff, suppliers, and third parties are encouraged to report any suspicions or evidence related to modern slavery within our business or supply chain. Reports will be handled promptly, fairly, and confidentially, in line with our whistleblowing and grievance procedures. We are committed to protecting anyone raising genuine issues in good faith from victimisation or retaliation.
This modern slavery statement is reviewed annually to ensure its effectiveness and relevance to our operations. We are committed to continuous improvement, regularly assessing our policies, supplier relationships, and training programmes. Feedback from staff, suppliers, and clients is welcomed as we strive to enhance our practices and do our part in eliminating modern slavery wherever it occurs.
Our role as a cherished florist in the Fitzrovia area inspires us to lead by example, promoting ethical business practices for the benefit of our customers, community, and wider society. We believe that delivering beautiful flowers goes hand in hand with respecting the rights and welfare of everyone involved along the way. Fitzrovia Flowers remains steadfast in our dedication to integrity, respect, and ethical responsibility in all that we do.
