Marshbook

Less time in the
office. More time
in the field.

Marshbook handles the administration that keeps club secretaries at their desks — so committees can focus on what actually matters. Memberships, permits, bag returns and compliance, managed digitally from any device.

Marshbook is already trusted by wildfowling clubs across Britain. Clubs that join become part of a growing community — sharing best practice, contributing to national conservation data and helping shape the product as it develops. The best club management software is built by the people who use it.

Membership management

Digital records for every member — certificates, licence checks, renewal dates and payment status. Members renew online. The secretary stops chasing.

Permits & bag returns

Issue digital shoot permits by zone. Members submit bag returns in the field from their phone. All data recorded in real time — no paper, no chasing, no lost forms.

Admin time — back where it belongs

Renewals, compliance checks, permit records and bag return reports — all automated. The average club secretary saves several hours of committee administration every month.

From the clubs
"

We'd been running memberships on a spreadsheet and issuing permits by hand for as long as anyone on the committee could remember. Marshbook changed that overnight. Renewals come in without chasing, permits are issued in seconds and our bag returns are actually complete for the first time. The secretary hasn't had to write a single reminder letter this season. I don't know why we didn't do it sooner.

Club Secretary Replace with club name
BASC compliance built in

Marshbook is designed around BASC affiliated club requirements — insurance certificates, licence checks and membership verification are part of the core system, not an afterthought.

Your data stays in the UK

All club and member data is hosted on UK servers, fully GDPR compliant. Your members' details never leave British jurisdiction. No third-party data sharing, ever.

Built with clubs, not for them

Every feature in Marshbook came from a real club need. Trial clubs shape the roadmap directly — if your committee needs it, we build it. This is community software in the truest sense.
