At Flowers Ware, we are dedicated to operating with the highest ethical standards. As a trusted Ware florist serving both local households and businesses, we categorically reject any form of modern slavery, including forced labour, human trafficking, and child labour. We maintain a strict zero tolerance policy towards any practices or activities that may enable or support modern slavery in our own operations and throughout our supply chain.
We recognise that our responsibility extends beyond our shop. To ensure our suppliers share our values, Flowers Ware conducts thorough due diligence prior to entering into any relationships. Our assessment includes questions about labour practices, transparency in hiring, and supply chain structures. We only engage with suppliers who uphold our standards and are prepared to demonstrate their compliance with all relevant laws, codes, and ethical guidelines. Flowers Ware maintains ongoing relationships with these partners and periodically reviews their adherence to our policy. Should we find evidence of non-compliance, immediate corrective action will be enforced, including potential termination of partnership.
We believe awareness is central to combatting modern slavery. As such, all Flowers Ware staff members, regardless of role, undertake annual training to understand the risks of modern slavery and how to spot potential warning signs, both internally and in the supply chain. This training ensures each team member remains vigilant and capable of identifying and reporting unusual or suspicious circumstances. Our induction process for new employees also incorporates education about our modern slavery stance and reporting procedures.
Flowers Ware provides safe, confidential channels for staff, suppliers, and stakeholders to raise concerns about possible modern slavery. We encourage a culture of openness and integrity, allowing anyone to voice concerns without fear of retaliation. All reports are taken seriously and thoroughly investigated by the appropriate personnel. Where necessary, we cooperate with law enforcement and regulatory agencies to ensure appropriate follow-up action is taken.
Each year, Flowers Ware reassesses the effectiveness of our modern slavery policies and supplier engagement. This annual review enables us to evaluate our practices, adapt to evolving risks, and implement improvements. It includes gathering feedback from staff, analysing reported concerns, and tracking supplier compliance. The results inform future training, risk assessments, and policy adjustments, helping us create a more resilient and ethically sound business.
As a respected florist in Ware, our commitment to fighting modern slavery forms a key part of our broader ethical responsibilities to our customers and community. We strive not only to deliver quality flowers, but also to foster trust, transparency, and social responsibility in every aspect of our business. This statement encapsulates our enduring promise to contribute to a fairer, safer society for everyone our business touches.
