Flowers Gipsy Hill honours the trust placed in us by our customers and our community as a local florist serving Gipsy Hill’s households and businesses. At the foundation of our operations is a deep sense of responsibility to uphold ethical standards, including the prevention of modern slavery and human trafficking. We are fully committed to upholding the principles of human dignity, fair treatment, and equal opportunity for all individuals who are part of our business and supply chain.
We recognise that the risk of modern slavery can exist at any stage of the supply chain, particularly within industries involving agricultural products and seasonal work. To mitigate these risks, Flowers Gipsy Hill adopts robust due diligence processes when selecting suppliers. We require our suppliers to adhere to ethical labour practices and provide assurance that forced or exploitative labour is not present in their operations. Regular monitoring of supplier performance and risk assessment allows us to identify any areas of concern so they can be addressed swiftly and effectively.
All our staff members, from florists to management, receive ongoing training to identify the signs of modern slavery and understand our policies and procedures aimed at preventing it. We are committed to fostering a culture of vigilance and accountability, ensuring that our team is equipped to spot and respond to any indicators of unethical practices—both within Flowers Gipsy Hill and throughout our supply chain. Training sessions are reviewed and updated regularly to reflect legislative changes and best practice.
We support and encourage individuals—whether employees, suppliers, or members of the public—to raise concerns regarding potential instances of slavery or human trafficking without fear of retaliation. Flowers Gipsy Hill maintains a clear, confidential reporting procedure for all suspected violations. Every report is treated seriously, fully investigated, and acted upon as necessary to ensure the continued integrity of our practices. We are committed to creating an environment where transparency and accountability flourish.
Our Modern Slavery Statement and associated policies are reviewed annually as part of our ongoing effort to improve our approach and respond effectively to emerging risks. Each year, we assess the effectiveness of our actions and update our protocols, training, and supplier engagement activities accordingly. Feedback from our staff and partners is actively sought to help strengthen our policies and controls.
At Flowers Gipsy Hill, serving our local community goes beyond the provision of exceptional floral arrangements. We believe it is our duty to set a positive example and contribute to the wellbeing of the people and businesses around us. This Statement reflects our continuing commitment to safeguarding human rights and eradicating modern slavery, ensuring that every stem and bouquet we deliver is underpinned by respect, transparency, and ethical responsibility.
