About

A practical company, built around how camps actually run.

Camp & Event Solutions Ltd designs, builds, and operates software for Scout leaders, youth groups, and outdoor operators. We are independent of The Scout Association. Our systems were built by Scout leaders for Scout leaders and youth groups.

How it started

From one district tool to a family of products

We did not start with a product roadmap. We started with a camp that needed to work. Spreadsheets and section lists were not enough for a large district event, so 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.

What we will not trade away

  • On-site first — field conditions beat a whiteboard
  • Leaders are volunteers — software should save time
  • Young people come first — health notes are not marketing data
  • Honest about limits — we say what we protect

The people behind it

Euan and Alan run the company

Two co-founders. One builds the platforms; the other keeps the business tied to real camp and event operations.

Co-founder — product & engineering

Euan Livingstone

Designs, builds, and operates the platforms. Built Scout Camp Manager end to end and keeps shipping improvements shaped by leaders using it in the field.

Co-founder — business & vision

Alan Davidson

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.

What we make

Trading names of Camp & Event Solutions Ltd

Scout Camp Manager

Camp and event operations: who is coming, who is on site, who needs what, and how leaders talk to each other.

Trail Bookings

Reservation software for outdoor operators — tours, rentals, campsites, activities, and stays — without taking a cut of the booking.

Scouting Site

Websites, domains, and group email for UK Scout Groups and youth groups, so volunteers are not also unpaid web developers.
