My name is Joe. I am 23. I was given The Woodfords Wherry Microbrewery Starter Kit as a gift, and as my only experience with beer is drinking it I looked around and thought this would be a good place to expand my knowledge. And guide me through using this 'all you need kit', as this all seems a bit daunting.
I've been gifted a starter kit! Uh-oh.

yes unfortunately its very hard and complicated business, I suggest you don't bother and forward the kit on to me for disposal......... 
However if you do decide to get stuck in and have patience you will end up with a 23 litres of good beer.
Browse the How to forum making kit beers is the same whatever the ingredient. Watch a couple of Craigtube videos where he shows you what to do with kits then take the plunge.

Hello and welcome!
You have started with a good choice of kit, in my opinion the Wherry one is my favourite of the few I have made! Quality beer and very easy to do...I think that THIS post will go a long way in answering all your questions about starting off...anything else just ask, there are loads of helpful people on here who will be more than happy to assist! :

Welcome - it really isn't as daunting as it first seems, basically as long as you make sure everything is as clean and sterile as possible (note - this won't be completely, just as much as possible) and follow the basic instructions with regards to temperature, you won't go far wrong.
The only thing to ignore is when certain kits say you'll have beer ready to drink in two weeks - you will have beer, but it won't be ready to drink.
General rule is two weeks fermenting, two weeks in a bottle/keg somewhere warm (room temp) and then 4 weeks somewhere cooler (shed etc) and you'll have a great pint.
