Current ac for married couples

Hi all,
I hold current accounts with Santander, Lloyds, TSB, Tesco and the Post Office.
Some of these accounts will be closed as I look to streamline the no. of accounts I own since many are now paying hardly any interest. The Santander will stay as my 'main' central ac.
I am also looking to open a new joint account with my wife, any recommendations as to the best ones in terms of interest, other benefits, access etc? The joint account needs to be accessible but will likely hold money towards a property in the future etc.
As an Fyi I also have a LISA with Skipton..allowance for this year still to be used.
Thanks

Plenty of info on this very site regarding the best accounts etc.

I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.0 -
For a joint account i would recommend, one that offers extras like travel&phone insurance since you both get cover for the price of 1 monthly fee. Or an account that pays out for paying bills etc. as usually this is the main purpose of a joint account in the first place.0
