Can someone please help, my daughter is 16 and starting an apprenticeship, we want to start to put money into a savings account for her but we're finding that children's saving accounts only go up to age 15 and adult accounts start at age 18. Can anyone suggest what we can do?
Many thanks

What about a Santander 16-18 Current Account?:footie:
Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money.0 -
She's got a current account with Natwest but we wanted a savings account really to put some money away.0

Your daughter can have an adult Cash ISA (with full adult annual allowance) with almost all ISA providers from the age of 16.Old dog but always delighted to learn new tricks!0

Santander only pays the 3% up to £500, so may not be worth it, but depends on circumstances.“I could see that, if not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled.” - P.G. Wodehouse0

Open a JISA with Halifax if eligible? https://www.gov.uk/junior-individual-savings-accounts/overview
6.00% tax free/AER variable
if an adult cash ISA is held or child is 16 and over.
She can open for herself as she is over 16 - money available to her when she is 18.0 -
Thanks for all your help guys, will look into all of those options.
