Modern Slavery Statement
Last updated: 8 May 2026 · Financial year ending 31 December 2025
Media Addict Limited's annual turnover is below the £36 million threshold at which a statement is mandatory under section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. We publish this statement voluntarily because we hold ourselves and our supply chain to the same standards expected of larger organisations, and because our clients in regulated sectors expect this transparency from their suppliers.
1. Our organisation
Media Addict Limited (company number 10731838) is a UK media agency offering traditional media buying and performance marketing solutions. We employ a small UK-based team and operate from our registered and trading address at 167-169 Great Portland Street, London W1W 5PF, with sales-presence offices in Calgary (Canada) and Los Angeles (USA). Our clients are predominantly UK-based businesses operating in FCA-regulated financial services, legal services, claims management, insurance and consumer goods.
2. Our supply chain
Our supply chain is short and consists almost entirely of UK and other-OECD-country suppliers. The principal categories are:
- Media owners and inventory partners: UK national press, broadcast, out-of-home and digital publishers, all well-established regulated businesses.
- Technology and software suppliers: cloud hosting, CRM, communications platforms, AI/LLM providers and analytics tooling, predominantly UK, EU, US and Canadian businesses.
- Professional services: legal, accounting and audit firms; all UK-regulated.
- Office and operational services: workspace, IT hardware and travel.
We assess the modern slavery risk in our supply chain to be low. We have no manufacturing, no extractive supply chain, and no significant exposure to high-risk geographies or sectors.
3. Policies
We maintain the following policies relevant to modern slavery:
- An anti-slavery and human-trafficking commitment, set out in this statement and reinforced in our supplier engagement.
- A whistleblowing channel. Staff and suppliers can raise concerns in confidence by emailing hello@mediaaddict.co.uk marked “Whistleblowing”.
- Recruitment practices that comply with UK right-to-work checks, the National Minimum Wage, the National Living Wage, and equal-pay obligations.
4. Due diligence
Before engaging a new supplier of material spend, we perform proportionate due diligence including: a review of the supplier's public modern-slavery and ethics commitments where applicable; verification of the supplier's legal status; and contractual flow-down of our anti-slavery expectations.
We expect every supplier to comply with all applicable modern slavery, forced labour and human trafficking laws, and to take equivalent measures within their own operations and supply chain.
5. Training and awareness
All members of staff are made aware of this statement and the whistleblowing channel as part of induction. Senior staff with procurement responsibility receive additional briefing on identifying and escalating modern slavery indicators.
6. Effectiveness
During the most recent financial year we identified no instances of modern slavery or human trafficking in our business or supply chain, and no concerns were raised through our whistleblowing channel. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these measures and update this statement annually.
7. Approval
This statement is approved by the board of directors of Media Addict Limited.
Signed by Jack Cottrell, Managing Director, on behalf of the Board.
