At this point We Would Like To make this Clear.
This site has nothing to do with Woolworth's in any format.
This is a Kids First Site, based in Hereford to let you know how well we are doing. We will do our best to keep you guys updated with what’s going on

RIP
In 2005 we lost a very close colleague Sandra W, she was such a big fan of the Kids First charity group, I would like to dedicate this website to Sandra W. She was diagnosed with cancer. She was such a good supporter to Kids First, and very helpful to colleagues so this is why I decided to dedicate this site to her, Click here to read more. We all miss you.

What's this site about?
From here you can read how well we are doing, starting with fun days to handing over the cheques. There are also pictures that we have taken on the special days, we would like to point out that all pictures on here were taken with the permission from parents or guardians, we don't add any pictures without permission. There is also puzzles & games for children to play. Don't forget to leave us your comments.


How do you raise funds?
Some of the items have been donated by staff /Boss/ Companies. We also raise funds but have special raffle days; we even sell our own cakes at work to the staff. If you want to read more on how you can raise funds click here.

Payments
We are sorry to say that Kids First Hereford don't have a bank account, so to help you out we have decided to use our own on-line shopping cart, and our account. What we do is we keep records on what we sell and at the end of the month we give kids First their money, we don't make any profit on anything we sell.

This site is nothing to do with Woolworth's
It's run privately by myself, and is here to show you what we have managed to raise over the past through running Kids First Hereford.


Thank you
