At Flower Delivery Perivale, we recognise the devastating impact that modern slavery and human trafficking have on individuals and communities worldwide. As a trusted florist serving the Perivale community, including local households and businesses, we are unwavering in our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all aspects of our business. This statement sets out the measures we undertake to ensure modern slavery does not exist within our own operations or our supply chains.
We maintain a zero tolerance policy towards all forms of modern slavery, forced labour, servitude, and human trafficking. Flower Delivery Perivale will not knowingly engage with any person or organisation involved in such activities. We expect the same high standards from our partners and suppliers, making it clear that any involvement in modern slavery will result in the immediate termination of our relationship and, where necessary, reporting to the relevant authorities.
Given the nature of our business, we rely on a network of suppliers for fresh flowers and floral products. To maintain oversight and ensure compliance, we carry out thorough due diligence on current and prospective suppliers. This involves assessing their labour practices, reviewing their own modern slavery statements (where applicable), and verifying adherence to employment laws. We give preference to suppliers who demonstrate strong ethical standards, including traceable sourcing and transparent working conditions. Ongoing monitoring helps us to identify and address any risks in our supply chain.
All staff within Flower Delivery Perivale receive training on what constitutes modern slavery, the signs that may indicate its presence, and the steps required to address concerns. By fostering a culture of awareness and vigilance, staff members are encouraged to raise any suspicions, ensuring that potential issues are identified and managed swiftly. Training materials are reviewed and updated regularly to reflect evolving best practices in tackling modern slavery.
We view it as essential that all employees, suppliers, and third parties have a clear and safe mechanism for reporting concerns related to modern slavery. Flower Delivery Perivale provides confidential channels for reporting, ensuring that all reports are taken seriously and investigated appropriately. We are committed to protecting whistleblowers from retaliation and to acting promptly and transparently on all credible information received.
This modern slavery statement is subject to an annual review by Flower Delivery Perivale's management. Through this process, we evaluate our effectiveness, learn from new developments in legislation and best practice, and update our policies accordingly. Continuous improvement underpins our approach, ensuring our methods remain robust and fit for purpose.
As a florist deeply embedded in Perivale’s community life, we believe we have a professional and moral responsibility to uphold the highest standards of integrity. Our commitment to preventing modern slavery forms a core part of our values as a trusted local business. We are dedicated to operating transparently and to playing our part in eradicating modern slavery wherever it may arise.
