At Chalk Farm Flowers, we are deeply committed to upholding the highest standards of ethical conduct. We maintain a zero tolerance approach towards any form of modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, or exploitation within our organisation and across our entire supply chain. This core value is crucial to how we operate as a leading florist, serving households and local businesses throughout Chalk Farm with integrity and care.
As part of our responsibility to prevent modern slavery or human trafficking, we have implemented robust supplier due diligence processes. All new and existing suppliers are required to confirm that they adhere strictly to anti-slavery legislation and share our ethical values. We carefully review supplier practices, including the sourcing of flowers, packaging, and other materials, seeking transparency at all stages of the supply chain.
We routinely assess suppliers through questionnaires and, when appropriate, request supporting documentation and certifications. Any concerns or inconsistencies raised are promptly investigated. Suppliers who do not meet our ethical standards or who fail to engage transparently may be subject to contract review or termination of business relationship.
To ensure our zero tolerance position on modern slavery is understood and acted upon, all Chalk Farm Flowers staff undergo regular training on recognising, preventing, and reporting the signs of slavery and exploitation. Training is tailored for different roles, ensuring everyone—from senior management to delivery staff—understands their responsibilities and how to seek guidance if there are any concerns regarding suspicious practices or supplier conduct. By raising awareness throughout our team, we contribute to eliminating risks within our business and the wider florist industry.
We are committed to maintaining a culture of openness, where issues and concerns about modern slavery can be reported without fear. All staff members are made aware of the channels available to report their concerns, whether they relate to Chalk Farm Flowers operations or the practices of a supplier. Such reports are treated seriously and confidentially and will be investigated thoroughly by management.
Additionally, we are receptive to feedback from customers or the public that helps us identify areas where we can improve our vigilance against exploitation. Our policies ensure that anyone raising concerns is protected and that appropriate action is taken in response to any substantiated claim.
Our Modern Slavery Statement and associated policies are reviewed and updated annually—or more frequently if necessary—in response to legislative changes, supplier assessments, and our evolving understanding of risks. These reviews help us strengthen our practices, implement improvements, and adapt staff training accordingly.
We strive for continuous improvement as part of our ethical responsibility to our customers, staff, and the wider Chalk Farm community. Each year, we assess the effectiveness of our policies and adjust processes to ensure we remain vigilant and proactive in fighting modern slavery.
As a trusted florist in Chalk Farm serving local households and businesses, we recognise this commitment goes beyond compliance; it is central to the trust our clients place in us. Our actions reflect our ongoing promise to create a safe, fair, and respectful environment, both within our own workplace and throughout our supply chain. We take pride in leading by example and supporting the values that our community holds dear.
