The UK has around 13 different tax wrappers and about 30,000 different areas to invest in. It needs a bit more narrowing down otherwise you could end up with 30,000 different responses each of which could be correct or wrong.

Whats your tax status?
Do you get pension credit?
Are you getting your age allowance reduced or are you close to that?
what is your risk profile?
What accessibility is required?
what other capital do you have or is this only it?

Without knowing these and some other questions we cant help guide you and with respects to save-a-lot, that could be an awful suggestion or a good one. We just dont know enough to say.
