It is usual for a group of Hereford players to visit the Children's Ward at Hereford Hospital but this year the club is supporting an appeal to raise £8,000 for a piece of sensory play equipment called a 'magic carpet'.
As well as the players visiting the wards, the club have offered the chance for young patients on the ward to lead the teams out onto the Edgar Street pitch.

And during half time director George Webb spoke to BN about what the club had planned.
"We are trying to raise £8,000 for the Children's Ward in Hereford Hospital for a magic carpet for children.
"We are going there on December 23rd.
"We are going to auction Rob Purdie's Wembley shirt for this cause to help raise as much money as possible.
"The shirt will go on sale in the next week or so. It will go for auction on Ebay.
"We've started today with a bucket collection."
