Florist Wood Green is proud to serve the households and businesses of Wood Green as a trusted local florist. We recognise our ethical obligation to ensure that all forms of modern slavery and human trafficking are prevented within our organisation and our supply chain. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out our approach and the actions we have instituted to uphold this responsibility, in alignment with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and our own values of integrity and community trust.
We operate a strict zero tolerance policy against all forms of modern slavery, forced labour, servitude, and human trafficking. Every member of Florist Wood Green, from management to frontline staff, is expected to adhere to this principle in their daily work and decision-making. This stance is also extended to all individuals and businesses who form our supply chain, regardless of size or location.
As a local florist, we source flowers, plants, and ancillary products from a variety of suppliers. To reduce the risk of modern slavery in our supply chain, we conduct regular due diligence checks on all current and potential suppliers. Our process involves reviewing suppliers’ Modern Slavery policies, evaluating working conditions at source where possible, asking for compliance statements, and requiring assurances that goods are sourced ethically. Should any supplier fail to meet our standards, we reserve the right to terminate relationships immediately.
Florist Wood Green recognizes the importance of ongoing staff training to identify and prevent modern slavery. All staff receive regular briefings covering the basics of modern slavery, recognising signs of concern, and understanding our internal and external reporting channels. Management is also tasked with keeping informed about best practice and legal developments in modern slavery prevention. This commitment to education underpins a culture of vigilance and responsibility across our team.
We actively encourage the reporting of any suspicions or incidents of modern slavery. Staff and suppliers can raise concerns directly and confidentially to line management or a designated senior staff member. Our whistleblowing procedures protect those coming forward from any form of retaliation or disadvantage. We ensure all reports are taken seriously, investigated promptly, and acted upon decisively in accordance with our zero tolerance policy.
Florist Wood Green is committed to best practice through the regular review and improvement of our policies and procedures. Our Modern Slavery Statement is formally reviewed each year to determine progress, consider newly identified risks, and update our approach as required. Feedback from staff and customers is welcomed to help us further strengthen our efforts in combatting modern slavery and safeguarding ethical practices.
As a florist embedded within the Wood Green community, we understand the trust local households and businesses place in us. This Statement demonstrates our proactive commitment to upholding the highest ethical standards and reflects our ongoing role as a responsible local business. We stand firmly against all forms of modern slavery and are dedicated to sustaining a safe, just, and respectful environment for all who work with and buy from us.
