This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and sets out the steps that Outspoken Socials has taken and is continuing to take during the financial year ending 31/12/2026 to ensure that modern slavery or human trafficking is not taking place (a) in any part of our business; and (b) in our supply chains.

1. Introduction

Outspoken Socials (“we”, “our”, “us”) is a marketing agency providing strategy, content creation, social media management, digital marketing, and other related services. We have a zero-tolerance policy towards modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, or any form of servitude. We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity, and to ensuring that there is transparency in all our business dealings.

2. Organisational Structure & Our Supply Chains

  • We are a UK-based small sized marketing agency. Our core operations are located in the UK but we may engage contractors, freelancers, third-party suppliers, production partners, software providers, and vendors both within the UK and abroad.

  • The nature of our supply chains includes:

    1. Creative & content production (e.g. videography, photography, graphic design)

    2. Technology, software, platforms and tools (e.g. hosting, digital tools, subscription based services)

    3. Outsourced services such as printing, event management, supplier-partners, external studios

    4. Professional services (legal, accounting, recruitment)

3. Risk Assessment

  • Given that our services are professional / creative / digital, we assess that the risk of modern slavery occurring directly within our own business is relatively low.

  • However, risks may exist in certain parts of our supply chain, especially where physical goods or production are involved (e.g., printing, video production, props, equipment), or where suppliers are based in jurisdictions with weaker labour laws or transparency.

  • We keep these risk areas under periodic review.

4. Policies & Procedures

To help ensure that modern slavery is not present in our business or our supply chains, we have implemented several policies and procedures, including but not limited to:

  • Anti-Slavery Policy: We have a policy that states our commitment, the expectations we hold for our staff, contractors, and suppliers, and the actions to take if there is a suspicion or evidence of modern slavery.

  • Recruitment & Right to Work Checks: For any employee or contractor engaged by us, we conduct checks to verify their legal right to work in the relevant country.

  • Supplier Due Diligence: When onboarding new suppliers we:

    • Ask for declarations that they comply with relevant labour laws and modern slavery requirements.

    • Assess their location, nature of work, and whether practices may present a higher risk.

    • Include clauses in contracts requiring suppliers to uphold standards against modern slavery, and to ensure their own supply chains do likewise.

  • Whistleblowing / Reporting Mechanisms: We encourage all employees, contractors, and other parties to report any concerns relating to modern slavery, human trafficking, or forced labour. Reports can be made confidentially.

  • Training & Awareness: We ensure that anyone in our organisation who may have responsibility for engaging suppliers, contractors, or overseeing production is aware of modern slavery risks and how to raise concerns or escalate issues.

5. Monitoring & Effectiveness

  • We regularly review our supplier relationships and contract terms to ensure compliance with our anti-slavery commitments.

  • We monitor feedback, complaints or concerns raised by staff or third parties concerning labour practices in our supply chain.

  • We will assess, annually, how effective our actions have been, and look for improvements. Key performance indicators may include:

    • Number of new suppliers assessed for modern slavery risk

    • Number of staff / contractors trained in modern slavery awareness

    • Incidents raised (if any) and how they were resolved

6. Responsibility

  • Overall responsibility for the prevention of modern slavery rests with our founder, Danielle Boxer, of Outspoken Socials.

  • Day-to-day operational responsibility for implementing this statement, its policies, procedures, due diligence, and training is delegated to Danielle Boxer, founder.

7. Continuous Improvement

  • We vet suppliers more strictly when the risk is higher, and take into account supply chains outside the UK.

  • We will periodically review and update this Statement, and our policies, to reflect evolving best practice, relevant legislation changes, or changes in our business structure or supply chains.

8. Approval

This statement has been approved by our founder Danielle Boxer of Outspoken Socials on 15/10/2025.
