Allow admin permissions
Grant permission to ‘Superusers’ who can collect data by viewing user records, exporting data, or accessing this data via APIs.
Report on your data

Safely secure your volunteer diversity and inclusion information
Access Assemble’s volunteer diversity and inclusion functionality is a secure solution that enables you to retrieve and report on the information of your volunteers, while being in the sound knowledge that Managers can only view anonymised data. This is made possible by:
- Having autonomy over diversity information: Access Assemble’s diversity monitoring settings allow you to control which questions are asked. Our Enterprise-level charities also have full control over the wording of both their questions and answer options.
- Set permissions for relevant stakeholders: You can grant permission to ‘Superusers’, who are the only ones who can access individual volunteers’ diversity and inclusion data. This will allow them to view volunteer records and export diversity data, while also being able to access this data via an API.
Key benefits of Access Assemble’s volunteer diversity and inclusion software
Access Assemble was built with diversity at its core. With our flexible solution, you can retrieve the desired diversity and inclusion information, including setting up additional custom questions to suit your organisation’s needs. Most importantly, you can manage and report on this data with multiple statistical reports built in that can drill into information dating back to 2016. Our software’s emphasis on diversity allows you to understand the demographics of your volunteers, providing an insight into whether you hit the mark where inclusivity is concerned.
Flexible diversity question & answer options
Access Assemble ensures that you adapt to the way in which diversity questions are asked as attitudes around this can change over time. Our flexible question and answer options allow you to:
- Choose from three question sets to reflect the terminology that best suits your organisation’s culture
- Suppress questions for those that you don’t wish to report on
- Provide four custom questions which include ‘Yes’, ‘No’, ‘Prefer not to say’, and ‘Other’
Additional control of your questions & answers
By opting for our Enterprise package, you will be able to gain autonomy over the questions you provide and the options that can be chosen as answers. This package allows you to:
- Change the wording of any question
- Change the answer options and wording
- Add answer options
- Restrict the answers to specific geographic regions e.g. Church of England only shown in England
Secure permission-based data access
Grant permissions to ‘Superusers’ who will be the only stakeholders able to access individual volunteer diversity information. These users can:
- View volunteer user records
- Export the diversity data of your volunteers
- Access the data through the API (from January 2025)
Insightful reporting functionality
Choose from five diversity reports that are built into Access Assemble. These provide percentage and number statistics and cover your volunteers as well as your applicants.
Swift diversity monitoring setup
Access Assemble ensures that you will be up and running in no time. Simply select the question set you want and you’re good to go. Assemble will start collecting diversity information on all of your applicants and volunteers. NHS organisations in England also have their own dedicated question set, covering all centrallly set requirements, while ensuring your monthly reports are complete with the data you need to provide.
Why customers love our volunteer diversity and inclusion software
From a strategic perspective, reporting on Assemble is great for understanding things like the diversity of our volunteers and this is helping us with our efforts to attract volunteers from all different parts of the community – as well as reasons volunteers leave us, which will always help us to build on our volunteer experience.
