    I suggest you read the artilcles on the main site. Hit the "Banking Saving" tab at the top of the screen.

    Tips:
    * Be sure to look at ISAs
    * Be sure to read this one and in particular the bit about the "Sixty Plus eSave" account
    * Consider looking at http://www.moneysupermarket.com/savings/
    (experiment with term accounts as well as easy access)
