See what they say
…it was critical that we had the right cover. Despite the lead time that was available to get the quote in, reviewed and agreed Access Insurance met this challenge head on.
They were able to provide cover for what we needed & unlike our previous insurer we did not need to buy a policy that covered several aspects we did not need. I would recommend them.
We felt like lost sheep & not sure what we needed. We were very happy to be guided by their expertise. The staff were extremely helpful and very patient. We would highly recommend them. Excellent…
Very responsive and answered questions politely and fully. Also very competitive pricing-important for a voluntary organisation!
Wow! What can I say; absolutely fabulous service from Access where nothing was too much trouble. Courteous, responsive and extremely quick in setting up our non-profit group’s insurance.
What types of cover do we provide
Our expert advisers work with you to create policies that meet your needs. Sometimes insurance can include common cover such as our public liability insurance for charity organisations. We also provide many other policies that will protect your assets, trustees, volunteers, supporters, participants and activities properly against the risks you face.
Public Liability Insurance
Public liability insurance for charities, sometimes referred to as charity liability insurance, ensures you are covered for claims as a result of injury or third-party property damage involving members of the public or other third parties, such as volunteers, due to your charity’s activities. We can provide charity public liability insurance for non-profit organisations and charities to cover these risks.
Staff Liability Insurance
It’s a legal requirement to have this policy in place if you have paid staff. You must also consider your volunteers’ safety and well-being. We design insurance that enables you to fulfil your duty of care for staff and volunteers.
Trustee Indemnity Insurance
Another popular cover is trustee indemnity insurance which protects people in positions of trust from claims made against them for mistakes or wrongful acts. This cover can also assist in legal costs associated with defending trustees and actions taken.
Professional Indemnity Insurance
To defend against claims for wrongful advice, errors or breach of care given for free or in exchange for payment.
Property and Contents Insurance
To properly protect your charity’s premises, infrastructure and physical assets in the case of theft or damage.
Cyber Insurance
To defend against the increasing risk of cyber-attacks, breaches and claims made regarding theft or loss of data.

Your questions answered.
It protects your organisation against claims for personal injury or property damage from the public, such as a member of the public tripping during a community cleanup or volunteering event.
Cover can be included for community events such as street parties, litter picks, fundraising events, awareness campaigns, and public meetings. Protection is designed to respond if a member of the public is injured or their property is damaged.
It is strongly recommended. If your group relies on volunteers to run events or campaigns, we can include employers’ liability to ensure they are protected if they are injured while helping you.
Volunteers of a community action group are generally treated as unpaid employees by insurance policies.
We can arrange cover for your owned or hired equipment, protecting against accidental damage, loss or theft while being used in the community or kept in storage.
It protects the group and its committee members or trustees if a claim is made against them for a wrongful act or error made while managing the group.
We can arrange policies that cover your group for activities taking place away from a regular meeting space, ensuring you are protected wherever your community action happens.
