NOTE TO ADVERTISERS*

Online advertisers aim to reach a broader audience than from printed publications. But, the expectation of making a sale comes further down the list. Sales follow a sequence: awareness, knowledge, liking, preference, conviction, sale. Yet, creating awareness is always the first step. Here's a test: are there any organisations on this page that you had not heard of before today, even if you might never buy from them?

*It's not about you selling to them. If they need to buy, it's about them buying from you.

Kidlington Kid

Kidlington Kid

Kidlington Kid felt encouraged — but curiously surprised to have helped win an award so soon after joining the team as an apprentice.

Publishing Director, Alice says, "KK has always demonstrated interest in learning the ropes, when he's not actually chewing them. We fell for KK after he told us he became interested in words after discovering an old typewriter in the barn. He said he was intrigued by its clacking sounds and the mysterious marks it made on paper. You can click on his delightful face to read more about Kidlington Kid."

KV's 2025 support for home-schooled young scholars in OX5.

Are you a parent or guardian faced with the prospect of home-schooling your child, but you don't know where to begin?

In 2025, Kidlington Voice is sponsoring the Charity Education Otherwise and KV has pre-paid a number of membership fees for parents who are home-schooling a child resident in our OX5 postcode area.

Here's what to do. Don't write to KV. Make contact directly with Education Otherwise and tell them that you heard about this local support from Kidlington Voice and, importantly, let them know your postal address in OX5. Here at KV we don't need to know who you are, nor your circumstances. If you qualify for additional support from Education Otherwise, KV will help you get started by paying your full membership fee to cover 2025. So, over to you.

If you have a child learning from home, then ...
