Flowers Dartmouth Park stands as a trusted local florist, proudly serving both households and businesses in Dartmouth Park. We recognise our responsibility to uphold the highest standards of ethical conduct, ensuring that modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation have no place within our business or the supply chains we rely on. Our zero tolerance approach is integral to the trust we build with every customer and the example we set within our community.
We have a zero tolerance policy towards all forms of modern slavery and human rights abuses. Flowers Dartmouth Park does not tolerate forced labour, child labour, servitude, trafficking, or any practice that denies individuals their freedom and dignity. This policy extends across all aspects of our operations, from direct employment to engagement with suppliers, business partners, and service providers.
We recognise that the risk of modern slavery can arise at any stage in the supply chain, including in the sourcing of flowers and related products. Therefore, Flowers Dartmouth Park implements a robust supplier due diligence process, selecting only reputable suppliers who share our commitment to ethical business practices. We review supplier policies, seek assurances regarding their labour standards, and ask relevant questions during procurement. Periodic reviews and spot checks are conducted to monitor ongoing compliance, and any indication of non-compliance is escalated without delay to the management.
We believe in empowering our team at Flowers Dartmouth Park to recognise and address issues related to modern slavery. To this end, all staff receive induction training on recognising signs of exploitation, understanding their obligations under UK legislation, and accessing the right channels if they have concerns. Ongoing refresher sessions reinforce the importance of vigilance, ensuring every member of our team remains alert to potential risks within our operations or supply chains.
We are committed to creating a safe environment for raising concerns. All staff, suppliers, and other stakeholders are encouraged to report any suspicions or evidence of modern slavery or unethical conduct. Our management team guarantees that all disclosures are handled sensitively, confidentially, and without fear of reprisal. Our aim is to investigate and act on all concerns promptly, taking corrective steps where required and working with authorities as appropriate.
This Modern Slavery Statement is subject to annual review to ensure its continued effectiveness. Flowers Dartmouth Park is committed to regularly assessing our policies, practices, and supplier networks in light of emerging risks and best practice guidance. Where opportunities for improvement are identified, we update our procedures accordingly and communicate changes to those affected.
As a florist rooted in the Dartmouth Park community, we recognise the importance of leading by example. We are steadfast in our promise to protect the rights and wellbeing of everyone touched by our business. Flowers Dartmouth Park remains wholly committed to ethical standards that reflect the trust and responsibility placed in us by local households and businesses.
