Why customers love Access Assemble
Transforming charity volunteering with Access Assemble
The initial setup was pretty good, with comprehensive webinars and training. The support has been very good overall, and the cost is quite competitive compared to similar systems. There's still a lot more we can explore and use more effectively within the system, so I highly recommend it.
I really couldn't do without the recruitment tools now - they are worth their weight in gold!
The simplicity of being able to generate opportunities independently, but with full access to our role profiles and the comfort that nothing will get missed throughout the application process, has been game changing.
The average time to clear a volunteer has been reduced from a month to 2 days
By offering a standardised process with Assemble, our volunteers each have access to the same great experience with us throughout their volunteer journey, even if they have been volunteering with us for a number of years.
Volunteers now experience a swift and seamless recruitment process
Being able to create opportunities on the website through Assemble brought an amount of simplicity and consistency to this process.

Volunteer management software FAQs
How does volunteer management software help charities save time?
It takes the hassle out of organising your volunteers. You can recruit, schedule, and communicate with your team all in one place. No more endless spreadsheets or email chains!
Everything you need is right there, so you can spend less time on admin and more time making an impact.
How How does Access Assemble help us stay in touch with our volunteers?
It brings all your communication tools together in one place. You can send updates, reminders and thank-yous directly through the system. Everything’s logged and trackable, so your team always knows who’s been contacted and when.
Does Access Assemble integrate with our other systems?
Yes, absolutely. Access Assemble connects easily with your other Access tools - and plenty of others - so your volunteer data sits neatly alongside your fundraising, HR, and supporter info. No double data entry, no tech headaches, just everything working together smoothly.
Is it just for big charities, or can smaller teams use it too?
Access Assemble works for organisations of all sizes, but we normally recommend it for charities with at least 200 volunteers to get the best return on investment.
That’s where the time savings and automation features really start to make a difference. If you’re growing towards that size, it’s a great way to get your volunteer management processes ready for the next stage. Always talk to us too, all charities are different.
