Welcome to Online Scout Manager (OSM)
Online Scout Manager (OSM) is a secure, easy-to-use platform that helps Scout leaders manage their groups efficiently. It’s designed to support everything from attendance and badges to communication — making Scouting smoother for everyone, especially parents!

What Is OSM?
OSM is a digital tool used by Scout groups across the UK and beyond. It helps leaders organise activities, track progress, and keep in touch with parents — all in one place.
What Can Parents Do on OSM?
Once you’re invited and logged in, you’ll be able to:
- View your child’s badge progress and achievements
- Sign up for events and camps (with all the details in one place)
- Receive messages and updates from leaders
- Update emergency contact and medical info quickly
Is It Safe?
Absolutely. OSM is GDPR-compliant and uses secure encryption to protect your data. Only authorised leaders can access your child’s information.
How Do I Get Started?
- Look out for an invitation email from your Scout leader.
- Click the link to create your parent account.
- Log in anytime via https://www.onlinescoutmanager.co.uk
Need Help?
If you have any questions or need help logging in, please contact your child’s section leader or email us directly.
Why It Matters
OSM helps us spend less time on admin and more time creating amazing experiences for your children. It also keeps you informed and involved every step of the way.
