The Woolf Trust Charity is a family charity that is accumulating funds to be distributed to worthy charities, particularly connected with sick or disadvantaged children. The charity will in time receive funds from fund raising events and legacies that will increase the ability to offer more help. The charity is also a vehicle for our trustees and connections to volunteer their time to these causes
