At Florist Chelsea, we hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards and are resolute in our zero tolerance approach to all forms of modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation. As an established florist serving Chelsea’s households and local businesses, we recognise our duty to stand firmly against practices that undermine human dignity and freedom. Our commitment extends to every facet of our business, from the front counter to our entire supply chain.
We understand that meaningful action begins with our sourcing practices. Florist Chelsea is diligent in assessing risks within our supply network, with particular focus on suppliers who provide cut flowers, arrangements, packaging, and sundries. We require all suppliers, contractors, and business partners to share our commitment; they must comply with all relevant laws and regulations relating to the prevention of modern slavery and human trafficking. We carry out periodic reviews, request compliance confirmations, and will not hesitate to terminate relationships with any supplier found to be operating in violation of these standards.
Education is integral to ensuring our staff can both identify and prevent the risk of modern slavery. All Florist Chelsea employees, whether front-of-house or behind the scenes, receive guidance and training on modern slavery risks, ethical sourcing, and how to report concerns. Our training programme is updated annually to ensure relevance, and staff are made aware of the signs of exploitation, as well as the importance of vigilance at every stage of our operations. Florist Chelsea cultivates a culture of openness, responsibility, and ethical conduct.
Clear reporting mechanisms are in place so our employees and stakeholders can confidentially raise concerns, suspicions, or evidence related to modern slavery, whether observed within our business or our supply chain. We take every report seriously. Reports are investigated impartially by senior management in line with our internal procedures. No individual will suffer reprisals as a result of raising genuine concerns in good faith. Protecting and empowering those who speak up is crucial in upholding our ethical values.
To remain robust and effective, Florist Chelsea reviews this Modern Slavery Statement and our wider anti-slavery practices on an annual basis as part of our commitment to continuous improvement. Feedback from staff, suppliers, and stakeholders is welcomed and directly informs our approach. Through regular scrutiny, we ensure that our policy evolves in line with emerging best practices and legal requirements.
This statement reflects Florist Chelsea’s commitment as a trusted local enterprise. We are proud to serve Chelsea’s homes and businesses and understand the importance of leading by example. Our approach to modern slavery is an essential part of the trust placed in us by our customers and community. We are dedicated to ensuring that, at every stage of our operations, lives are respected and protected.
