Nottinghill House Clearance - Modern Slavery Statement

This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the commitment of Nottinghill House Clearance to prevent slavery, servitude, forced labour and human trafficking in all parts of our business and supply chain. We publish this statement as part of our ongoing anti-slavery and human rights programme. Nottinghill Clearance takes a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and will act if it is found in any area of our operations or amongst our suppliers.

Our zero-tolerance policy

Zero tolerance is central to the Nottinghill House Clearance anti-slavery policy. We require that all employees, contractors and partners respect human rights and do not engage in any form of modern slavery. The company embeds this standard in employment contracts, procurement conditions and partner agreements and expects the same from subcontractors. Our policy is explicit: any instance of forced labour or exploitation will result in immediate action, including termination of contracts and referral to authorities where appropriate.

Scope and responsibilities

This statement covers all operations conducted by Nottinghill House Clearance Ltd and its supply chain. We identify and target higher-risk areas for additional scrutiny and resource allocation. Key elements of our approach include:

• Regular supplier risk assessments and supplier audits;
• Mandatory contractual anti-slavery clauses for new and existing suppliers;
• Training for staff on recognising signs of exploitation and appropriate responses.

We maintain a zero-tolerance policy across recruitment, procurement and operational practices. This means we will not tolerate exploitative working conditions, illegal withholding of wages, or retention of identity documents. Notting Hill House Clearance promotes ethical recruitment and ensures all recruitment agents used are vetted and required to comply with our standards. Where concerns arise we will act decisively to protect victims and remediate any harm.

Supplier audits form a cornerstone of our supplier due diligence. We conduct periodic audits and targeted reviews of suppliers based on risk indicators such as geography, sector and subcontracting practices. Audits include document reviews, interviews and, where necessary, on-site inspections. Findings are tracked and addressed through corrective action plans, and persistent non-compliance results in termination of the supplier relationship.

To strengthen supply chain transparency, Nottinghill Clearance requires suppliers to provide evidence of labour practices, pay records and subcontractor lists. We maintain a register of high-risk suppliers and apply enhanced scrutiny, including third-party verification where appropriate. Our procurement team collaborates closely with operational managers to ensure ongoing monitoring and compliance.

Reporting channels are in place to allow anyone — employees, suppliers or third parties — to raise concerns securely. We provide multiple reporting routes including anonymous channels and an internal whistleblowing process. Reports are investigated promptly and confidentially. We will protect individuals who raise concerns in good faith and will not tolerate retaliation or victimisation.

All allegations are logged and investigated by trained staff. Investigations follow a clear protocol: initial assessment, evidence gathering, remediation planning and where necessary, escalation to relevant enforcement agencies. We document outcomes and lessons learned, and we ensure affected workers receive appropriate support and remediation when exploitation is identified.

Annual review: the effectiveness of our modern slavery and human trafficking measures is reviewed at least once a year. The annual review assesses policy effectiveness, audit results, training completion rates and reported incidents. Outcomes of the review drive continuous improvement actions, resource allocation and any necessary policy updates. Nottinghill House Clearance and its leadership remain committed to evolving our practices and strengthening protections across our operations and supply chain.
