This statement is made pursuant to Section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and sets out the steps that Golden Square Healthcare Limited (“the Company”) has taken, and continues to take, to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking are not taking place in our business or supply chains.

1.⁠ Organisational Structure and Business

Golden Square Healthcare Limited is a UK-based healthcare provider delivering services within the health and social care sector. We are committed to conducting all aspects of our business ethically, transparently, and with integrity, and we expect the same standards from all those with whom we do business.

Code of Conduct / Ethical Standards Policy

These policies reflect our commitment to acting ethically and provide mechanisms for reporting concerns.
