At Flowers Slough, we take our responsibilities to both our community and the wider supply chain seriously. As a trusted Slough florist serving local households and businesses, we recognise the importance of acting with integrity and transparency in all that we do. This extends to our corporate responsibility to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in every aspect of our operations and supply chains.
We maintain a strict zero tolerance policy for any form of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking within our business and among our partners. We are fully committed to ethical practices and expect the same standards from everyone associated with Flowers Slough, including suppliers, contractors, and other stakeholders.
We understand that the supply chain, particularly within the cut-flower and horticultural sector, can be complex. To ensure we uphold our high ethical standards, we conduct careful due diligence when selecting and renewing suppliers. This process includes gathering information about a supplier’s labour practices, policies, and compliance with relevant legislation regarding modern slavery. We seek assurances that all suppliers operate in a lawful and fair manner, and we reserve the right to cease business relationships where evidence of non-compliance is found.
Education is a crucial part of our modern slavery prevention efforts. All Flowers Slough employees receive training to help them identify potential signs of modern slavery or exploitation in everyday business practices. Training content is regularly reviewed and updated to reflect changes in legislation and guidance, ensuring our team remain vigilant and informed.
We have clear procedures in place for both staff and external parties to raise concerns about suspected modern slavery or unethical conduct confidentially. Reports can be made verbally or in writing, and individuals are encouraged to raise concerns at the earliest opportunity. We guarantee there will be no retaliation for good faith reports. All disclosures are treated with sensitivity and investigated thoroughly as part of our zero tolerance approach.
This Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure continued relevance and effectiveness. We benchmark our approach against industry best practice and seek to make improvements wherever possible. As our business and supply chain evolve, so too do the steps we take to minimise risks and uphold our commitments.
Our reputation is built on trust—trust that we not only deliver quality floral arrangements but also conduct our business with care and responsibility. Upholding robust anti-slavery principles is part of our pledge to serve households and businesses in Slough with integrity. We remain vigilant to the ongoing threats of modern slavery and strive to lead by example in our industry.
