At Florist Kensington, as a trusted florist proudly serving households and businesses across the Kensington area, we recognise our responsibility to uphold the highest standards of ethical conduct. We are fully committed to acting with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships and have a zero tolerance approach towards modern slavery and human trafficking in any form, both within our business and in our supply chains.
Florist Kensington has a clear and unequivocal zero tolerance policy regarding modern slavery and human trafficking. We do not condone, allow, or engage in practices that exploit individuals or undermine their human rights. This commitment extends to all activities, employees, and business relationships, both directly and indirectly related to our operations. Any evidence of non-compliance will be thoroughly investigated, and appropriate disciplinary or remedial actions will be taken, up to and including termination of contracts.
As a business that relies on a network of suppliers for fresh flowers, plants, and related products, Florist Kensington conducts rigorous due diligence to ensure all our suppliers share our values. Our supplier selection process includes assessing their compliance with laws on modern slavery and human trafficking. We ask suppliers to confirm their adherence to ethical standards, and we reserve the right to audit, investigate, or discontinue relationships with any supplier unable to demonstrate a genuine commitment to eradicating such practices.
We believe that awareness and education are foundational in preventing modern slavery. Accordingly, all staff at Florist Kensington receive training on recognising potential indicators of modern slavery and on understanding the risks that may occur in our industry. This training is delivered during induction and refreshed annually to ensure knowledge remains current, enabling team members to identify and respond to issues proactively and confidently.
Florist Kensington encourages an open culture where staff, suppliers, and anyone connected to our business can raise concerns about potential instances of modern slavery or unethical practices. We have established accessible, confidential internal reporting channels for our staff, enabling them to raise issues without fear of reprisal. All reports will be taken seriously, treated confidentially, and investigated thoroughly by senior management to ensure effective resolution and protection for whistleblowers.
We are committed to the continuous improvement of our policies and practices. Our Modern Slavery Statement, along with all associated procedures, is reviewed annually by our leadership team to reflect changes in legislation, best practice, and feedback from staff, suppliers, and the broader Kensington community. Through these regular reviews, we ensure our response remains robust, effective, and up to date.
As a respected florist in Kensington, we recognise the trust placed in us by local households and businesses. We are dedicated to upholding that trust, not only through the quality and beauty of our floral arrangements, but by conducting business in a way that respects human rights and champions ethical responsibility. This statement represents both our policy and our ongoing commitment to a transparent, fair, and just business environment.
