At Parsons Green Florist, we are unwavering in our commitment to eliminating modern slavery and human trafficking in all parts of our business and supply chains. We believe fair treatment, dignity, and respect are fundamental rights for every individual, whether they are part of our immediate team or associated with us through our suppliers. We operate with a zero tolerance policy for all forms of modern slavery and ensure these values are embedded throughout our organisation.
As a trusted florist serving the Parsons Green community, our responsibility extends beyond beautiful arrangements – it encompasses ethical and responsible sourcing. We conduct thorough due diligence when selecting new suppliers and continuously monitor our existing partners to uphold our standards. This includes clear contractual obligations for compliance with all relevant laws on modern slavery, risk assessments, and regular reviews of supplier practices. Where concerns are identified, we engage directly with suppliers to support improvements, and, if necessary, cease partnerships that fail to meet our ethical standards.
We believe awareness is central to tackling modern slavery. All staff members, from florists to delivery teams, receive training to help them recognise the signs of modern slavery and understand the steps to take if they have concerns. This training is regularly updated to reflect emerging risks and the latest best practices. We foster a culture where everyone understands their role in preventing exploitation within the business and the wider supply chain.
Parsons Green Florist is dedicated to transparency and accountability. Our team members are encouraged to report any suspicions of modern slavery or unethical behaviour without hesitation. Clear internal channels are in place for confidential reporting, safeguarding whistle-blowers from retaliation. We handle all reports promptly, taking appropriate and proportionate action where required. This approach extends to concerns raised by suppliers, customers, or members of the local community, reflecting our open-door ethos.
We understand that combatting modern slavery is an ongoing responsibility. Each year, we review the effectiveness of our statement and supporting policies, considering updates in the law, new risks in the floristry supply chain, and feedback from stakeholders. This annual review ensures we adapt to changing circumstances, improve our processes, and remain at the forefront of best practice. We share key outcomes with our staff to keep modern slavery prevention high on our collective agenda.
This statement is more than a legal requirement - it is an expression of the ethical standards valued by Parsons Green Florist, underpinning every bouquet and every delivery we make. As a respected local florist serving households and businesses alike, we recognise our responsibility not only to customers but to the global community supporting our work. We are resolute in our pledge to help create a world where modern slavery is consigned to history.
