At Flower Delivery Sydenham Hill, we are unwavering in our commitment to upholding human rights and ethical practices. Modern slavery—encompassing forced labour, human trafficking, child labour, and exploitation—has no place in any aspect of our operations or among our suppliers. As a trusted Sydenham Hill florist serving local households and businesses, we understand the responsibility we have to ensure fair and respectful treatment for every individual involved in our value chain.
We recognise that the most significant risks of modern slavery may occur within supply chains. To address this, we conduct thorough due diligence before engaging new suppliers and continue to monitor existing relationships. We expect all our suppliers, contractors, and business partners to share our resolute stance against modern slavery and to act in full compliance with applicable laws. Where appropriate, we require our suppliers to confirm their own anti-slavery procedures and to cascade similar standards through their supply chains. If any supplier is found to be in breach of these expectations, we act swiftly to review, remedy the situation or, if necessary, terminate the relationship.
Raising awareness is a crucial line of defence against modern slavery. All Flower Delivery Sydenham Hill team members receive training to recognise the signs of modern slavery and exploitation, both within the workplace and across the supply chain. This training empowers our staff to spot risks and understand the steps to take should any concerns arise, reinforcing a commitment to vigilance throughout our operations.
We foster an environment where staff, suppliers, and associates feel safe reporting any suspicions of modern slavery. Clear, confidential reporting channels are in place, ensuring concerns can be raised without fear of reprisal. We take all allegations seriously and investigate them promptly and thoroughly. We are committed to protecting whistleblowers and addressing any issues that come to light with honesty and transparency.
We believe combating modern slavery is an ongoing process. Our Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure its continued effectiveness and relevance to the evolving risks in our sector. We assess our progress, update our policies, and adapt our procedures in order to maintain the highest possible standards. Continuous improvement is at the heart of our approach, ensuring that our business—and all those we work with—progressively minimizes the risk of modern slavery.
As a longstanding part of the Sydenham Hill community, we value the trust that households and businesses place in us. This statement reflects not only a legal obligation, but also our moral commitment to ensuring ethical conduct and human dignity across all aspects of our work. We take this responsibility seriously and strive to set a positive example for others in the floral industry and beyond.
