Long term savings for new son

Options
Hi

I am looking for some options on accounts for my son, he is 5 months old, unfortunately me and his mother are no longer together so I am making provisions for him when he is older...

I have opened up a Halifax Regular Saver which is paying 10%. I should be able to pay the maximum into this account this year which is £1200.

I would also like to open up a long term account saving say £25 a month until he is 18 or 21. Could anyone make any suggestions?

His mother would of had the CTF voucher by now, I'll leave that to her where she decides to invest it, this is just purely something that I am going to handle.
