Why charities love our software
We can now access and manage data all in one place from anywhere
The charity CRM provides a better means of recording consent and opt-ins for our communications and makes managing our GDPR compliance in relation to this much easier. The new system has also made it easier for us to create targeted audiences which helps with our fundraising campaigns and with our stewardship of donors.
30% uplift in people signing up to regular donations since using Access Charity Websites
The new website is easier to use, packed with messaging that resonated and had clear, connected workflows. As well as the uplift in sign ups, the number of people choosing to give more than £10 a month increased by 30%.
The average time to clear a volunteer has been reduced from a month to 2 days
Since using the volunteer management software, volunteers feel more connected to the wider organisation. They are able to keep up to date with what is happening within our charity through the news pages and can share or accept invites to our meetings for all staff and volunteers.
We secured a 100% boost in the number of donations with Charity Ad Grants management
As a small team, the support that Access has provided has been invaluable for driving more traffic to our Crisis Appeal page and made it as easy as possible for supporters to donate as soon as they hit our website. This in turn means we have been able to scale up our emergency assistance work and reach more people.

At Access we believe in giving back to our communities.
Charity is at the core of our values and we offer a variety of initiatives that allow our team to give something back and make a difference. Each year, our employee community nominates a cause close to their hearts to become our local charity of the year. These charities receive fundraising in addition to other support from the business. For example, with every pound raised by our staff, Access doubles it. A true partnership in every sense.
Our people are also able to dedicate their time to give back to their local community or chosen cause with an extra day's leave to make this possible. The Access Foundation makes a real impact in our communities. Through this philanthropy, we support causes nominated by our team and work to bridge the digital divide.
