At Harrow Flowers, we pride ourselves on being a trusted Harrow florist, serving local households and businesses with integrity, care, and responsibility. Central to our values is a steadfast commitment to upholding human rights and maintaining ethical practices across all areas of our operations. As such, we are dedicated to taking all necessary steps to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chains.
Harrow Flowers maintains a strict zero tolerance policy towards modern slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking. We unequivocally oppose any form of exploitation within our business, supply chain, or partnerships. Our products, ranging from flower arrangements to associated retail goods, are sourced and produced in accordance with this core principle. We expect matching standards from all our suppliers and partners, holding them to the same recognitions of dignity and respect that guide our own operations.
Our fight against modern slavery begins with robust supplier due diligence. Before forming new supplier relationships, Harrow Flowers conducts comprehensive risk assessments that consider the origin of goods, labour practices, and transparency of the supply chain. Suppliers are required to confirm their adherence to ethical labour practices, and we actively review contractual agreements to ensure explicit clauses related to anti-slavery obligations are included. Periodic reviews and spot checks are undertaken to identify and address potential risks, and any failure to meet our standards can lead to the termination of commercial relationships.
We believe staff education is fundamental to preventing modern slavery. All team members receive training to help them understand the signs of modern slavery, their obligations under the Modern Slavery Act, and the processes Harrow Flowers uses to address concerns. This training is part of our induction programme and is revisited regularly to ensure awareness remains current and actionable. By equipping our staff with this knowledge, we foster an environment where ethical vigilance is a shared responsibility.
We encourage all staff, customers, and business partners to report any suspected instance of modern slavery or unethical behaviour. Harrow Flowers has established confidential reporting channels where individuals can bring forward concerns without fear of retaliation. All reports are promptly investigated, and appropriate action is taken in accordance with our zero tolerance approach. We are committed to maintaining a culture of openness where the well-being of individuals takes precedence over business interests.
Our Modern Slavery Statement is reviewed annually to ensure its continued relevance and effectiveness. We actively monitor our policies and procedures, making improvements where needed to address emerging risks and new best practices. Feedback from staff, customers, and trusted partners is welcomed and considered as part of our ongoing commitment to ethical business practices.
As a cornerstone of the Harrow community, serving households and businesses alike, Harrow Flowers recognises that our social responsibility extends beyond our shop doors. Our actions in combatting modern slavery reflect our commitment to trust, respect, and responsibility for everyone connected to our business.
