During these unusual times the campsite is quietly sleeping, meanwhile it gives  us the chance to see the site in an unique way !

Whilst many of us are at home some updates have taken place on the Danemead website, and we need your help !

Danemead Campsite Active Support Unit, the team that runs the site, came together again this weekend to  refresh members First Aid skills by completing the First Aid ongoing learning module.

We’re delighted to announce that we have received funding from the National Lottery Community Fund towards the ongoing development of the campsite.

I have been the Site Manager for Danemead Scout Campsite now for just over 3 years. In those three years I really have become good at herding cats with the occasional one managing to escape my grasp!

So, what does it take to run a scout campsite? Well it’s a lot more than I expected! I’ve put together four average weeks of my Site Manager life and will explain some of our systems we have in place to make sure all our customers get the best experience! I hope you enjoy.

As the nights start to draw in their are changes afoot at the campsite this month together with new events taking place too.

Last month was particularly busy with Survival Camp, an increase of campers and the launch of Mud Run 2020.

Mud Run is back in 2020 and bookings are now open.

Month after month the team at Danemead continue to develop the site, here are some of the highlights from September.

As the site continues to enjoy another year of growth, both in popularity and bookings our Site Manager reflects.

Over the past two years the campsite has undergone a something of a transformation, embracing the digital age to benefit both users and staff.

BUSHSCOUT.UK recently held it’s first National Skills Day at the campsite.

We’ve just received National Lottery funding! Thank you to everyone who plays The National Lottery for supporting us.
