Our giving back culture

At Access, 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 votes for the cause closest to their hearts to become our local charity of the year. These charities receive fundraising in addition to other support from the business.

Charity of the year

We’re passionate about giving back to our communities and each year we ask our colleagues from across the globe to nominate a cause they wish to support. Throughout the company, we all get involved to raise money which is then matched by Access. Our people are also able to dedicate their time to give back to their local community or chosen cause, and Access gives everyone extra leave to make this possible.
 
This year our chosen charity is Make-A-Wish. The charity grants life-changing wishes to children with critical illnesses. A granted wish provides these children with respite from their daily routines of hospitals, doctors, and treatment.

Giving Back: Making time to make a difference

At Access we believe in creating positive change beyond the workplace. Every employee receives extra leave each year to volunteer their time and give back to local communities.

In 2025 our teams contributed 10,852 hours to causes that matter. From river clean-ups and building green spaces to helping students with CV and interview tips, creating reading corners for schools and volunteering at an orphanage, we are proud of the impact we have made together.

Giving back time is about volunteering, connection and purpose. They help us make a real difference where it counts.

The Access Foundation

The Access Foundation was set up in 2021 following the success and growth enjoyed by The Access Group over the previous decade.
While affiliated with the company in terms of its identity, The Access Foundation is a separate organisation, governed by an independent board of trustees and with its own objectives and goals.
The foundation is focused on making a real difference to people’s lives by awarding grants to charities that make a valuable and measurable positive impact.
