Unfortunately I don’t think Martin monitors the forums. 

When you say it is ‘doing nothing’ I presume you mean getting low interest? 

Wha do you want it to ‘do’? 

Do you want easy access to all/some of it (best Cash ISA 0.9%, best non-isa 1.16%)
Are you willing to lock it away for higher interest? 

Does it need to be in an ISA (will you pay tax on interest, want to invest it soon?)
Do you want to hold it as cash? 

What do you want to use the money for? 

N. B. Have assumed you meant cash ISA not stocks and shares.

You seem to have completely ignored the post from grumiofoundation, who helpfully pointed you towards articles explaining options for what to do with your money and then also asked you a number of questions that you'll need to answer if you're looking for some more tailored guidance, as your request is much too vague at the moment, no matter how often you repeat it.

To be fair the question was directed to Martin (educated guess Lewis) and I am not he.
