ScoutingSite is the website builder for UK Scout Groups — one of three products from Camp & Event Solutions Ltd. We handle the tech so volunteers can get back to Scouting.
Why we exist
ScoutingSite is a trading name of Camp & Event Solutions Ltd. Groups deserve a professional digital home without the Sunday-night spreadsheet slog.
We handle hosting, security, and complex layouts so you can drag, drop, and get back to actual Scouting. The technical heavy lifting is ours. The adventure is yours.
Visual editing
Coding required
Utilising Google Gemini and Anthropic's Claude to deliver high-performance content generation and smart auto-layouts, protected by Google-grade security.
The Interface
We’ve ditched the confusing back-end menus of the past. The ScoutingSite Canvas is a seamless, visual workspace where your changes happen in real-time, exactly as your parents will see them.
Edit text and swap images directly on the page without leaving the site.
Drag in Programme timelines, galleries, and widgets instantly.
Switch between mobile, tablet, and desktop views as you build.
Utilise Gemini to draft your page content and news posts in seconds.
The Ecosystem
Managing a modern Scout Group requires a cohesive identity. We integrate multiple enterprise-grade services into one dashboard to make that happen.
A custom domain (like @44thfife.org.uk) is the anchor of your identity. We handle the technical setup so your group stays "official" without the headache.
Professional, secure mailboxes for GSLs and Section Leaders. Includes file sharing, shared contacts, and 2FA protection to move away from personal accounts.
Our AI understands the "Scout Voice," helping you draft pages and even news posts that sound professional and welcoming.
Visuals tell your story. We provide global image hosting that serves your group's memories instantly to any device, high-resolution and high-speed.
Merge website joining enquiries into your OSM waiting list. Data sync — pulling programme dates, event details, and waiting list counts onto your website — is coming soon.
Protected by end-to-end SSL/TLS 1.3 encryption, ensuring every byte of data shared between your members and our UK-based servers remains private, secure, and tamper-proof.
Technical Sovereignty
We utilise a hybrid infrastructure model to balance UK-based privacy with global performance.
Residency: OVHcloud London
All member records and website configurations are stored within high-security OVHcloud data centres in the UK. This ensures your data never leaves British soil, maintaining strict compliance with UK-GDPR and providing full data sovereignty.
Residency: Cloudflare R2
Group images are stored in encrypted R2 buckets. They are served via Cloudflare's global edge network, meaning your site loads just as fast for a parent on a train as it does in the Scout hall.
Residency: Tucows/OpenSRS
Domain registration data is stored in Canada, a country recognised by the UK government for its "Adequate" data protection standards. This ensures high-availability for your group's address.
Residency: Tucows Cluster
To provide 99.9% uptime, our email service utilises Canadian clusters. This separation from our web servers ensures your communications stay active even if the main site is undergoing maintenance.
A clean, modern, and accessible website that parents and the community will love. Don't take our word for it—see it in action.

The company
ScoutingSite is a trading name of Camp & Event Solutions Ltd — a Scottish company that designs, builds, and operates software for Scout leaders, youth groups, and outdoor operators. Independent of The Scout Association. Built by Scout leaders for Scout leaders.
Camps, group websites, and outdoor bookings — from the same team.
Company number SC900688. Software for groups who run things in the field.
How it started
Spreadsheets and section lists were not enough for a large district event. Volunteers built registrations, registers, and leader tools — then used them the same weekend. That weekend still shapes how we ship: if a feature does not hold up with wet hands and a queue at the gate, it is not finished.
Camp & Event Solutions Ltd is that work, turned into products other groups can use. Scout Camp Manager grew out of that district camp. ScoutingSite applies the same idea to group websites: volunteers should not also be unpaid web developers.
The family
Each product solves a different job around camps, groups, and the outdoors.
Websites, domains, and group email for UK Scout Groups and youth groups — made for volunteers, not web developers.
This productCo-founder — product & engineering
Designs, builds, and operates the platforms — from camp check-in to group websites and outdoor bookings. Built Scout Camp Manager end to end and keeps shipping improvements shaped by leaders using the tools in the field.
Co-founder — business & vision
District Lead Volunteer. Runs the business with Euan — managing operations and shaping the vision so the company stays grounded in how camps and events actually run.
Field conditions beat a whiteboard.
Software should save time, not create another job.
