Child Trust Fund

Just wondering if anyone can help. When my second son was born, I never got around to investing his voucher so it was automatically invested for me, BUT, I moved house before I got the details so I have absolutely no idea where it got invested. Any ideas on where I could find this out. I've tried the old CTF helpline but that's now closed down, so no joy. Any ideas?

    When my DS was born in 2010 I didn't bother doing anything with the CTF Voucher either and they automatically invested it in a building society called Shepherds Friendly (I think, i'm not at home to check). I assume they may use the same BS to invest all outstanding CTF vouchers, though whether they change this on an annual basis I couldn't be sure. You could try contacting them and see if your son's CTF has been invested there?
