Just received my voucher for my newborn and was wondering if anyone knows the best place to invest it at the mo - not decided which if the 3 options to take although I'm not willing to risk the money too much.

Thanks

    I'd go (and did go) with a Stakeholder CTF tracking some index (there are a few to choose from).

    However, since I won't be adding to ours, I've now decided to have a bit more of a 'gamble' and am in the process of transferring them to a share account, and investing in three 'exciting' trusts.
