    If it were my money, I would put £5k in the bank and the remaining £95k in a diversified Investment Trust portfolio, reinvesting dividends.

    Nobody on the forum is allowed to give you financial advice.

    Suggestions would be possible.

    As to return, return when? At retirement? You might consider a pension.

    Within around five years? Consider high interest current accounts then savings accounts.

    After ten to fifteen years? Consider unit trusts, investment trusts, shares etc and remember to use your Stocks and Shares ISA allowance.....

    If you need advice you might consider an IFA http://www.thepfs.org/yourmoney/find-an-adviser/
