    Impossible to advise you without knowing how long you want to invest the money for, your other savings and investments, etc etc etc.

    'Interest' is relatively poor and has been for some time. Have you considered a Life Insurance Investmant Bond and selecting lower risk unit trust funds?

    These can be good but you need to know about what funds to invest in and where to set it up for minimum initial and ongoing charges.

    Depending on your circumstances, if you have a high net worth, these can be incorporated efficiently in certain Trusts.
