Dumbo question re savings interest/self-assessment

in Cutting tax
Hi all, sorry for this question which feels very basic but:
When filling in my tax return (self-assessment, self-employed) do I really have to enter the few pence I receive in interest on my tiny savings? It'll literally add up to about 20p if I'm lucky. I know it's not taxable but do I have to at least tell them about it??

No. Even if you did the system rounds pence down to zero..1

Thanks! So at what point would I have to enter a figure? If it goes over £1?0
