Halifax JISA https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/comment/52788721#Comment_52788721 post 9 if he is 16 very shortly.
Otherwise, you could open/ transfer your ISA to Halifax and go the 'relationship" route?0 -
I think I heard somewhere that a 16-year-old is allowed to hold both an adult ISA and a JISA. So if there is too much to fit in one account, could have one of each.0

Children aged 16 could choose to open an adult cash ISA as well as a Junior ISA.0
