About BCT
Over 100 Years of quality products throughout, this expertise has been enjoyed and benefited by thousands of Scout, Guide and Youth groups ever since Lord Baden Powell created the Scout movement back in 1908 and it is still thriving today
The company's success story relies heavily on the importance given to research and development and to both listening and acting on the demands of the customer.
This philosophy backed by traditional skills has enabled the company to build a large customer base both at home and abroad. Everything in our collection is manufactured at our factory in Bradford, Yorkshire. We do not import any tents.
Our Tents are produced for organisations such as Eurocamp, Keycamp, Contiki, Rockley Water Sports, Scout Shops and many other respected names, however, our individual Scout and Guide groups remain just as important to us as our larger corporate clients.
We were proud to have been chosen to produce the replica camp on Brownsea Island for the Scouting Centenary and World Jamboree in 2008. One of the Bell Tents is now on permanent display in the Boy Scouts of America Museum.
As you will discover throughout, our attention to detail, both in the selection of raw material and in every aspect of production, we still follow the stringent guidelines which Clifford Fawcett (grandfather of the present chairman) insisted upon almost 100 years ago.
From meagre beginnings we have developed our range of products far from the original Bell Tents of Brownsea Island to meet the demands of todays outdoor experience.
As well as a vast range of traditional tents for youth groups we produce a beautiful range of marquees and gazebos to enhance the pleasure of any garden or event.
Our Glamping range is growing fast to give the outdoor experience a new dimension and the luxury demanded by todays clients.
Softplay is now a major part of our business. From Space Frame technology for the larger locations to smaller play frames for the playgroup or home. A great range of soft play toys all created and made in our factory in Bradford.
