FTSE All-Share ETF?

There are any number of very cheap OEICs/UTs that track the FTSE All-Share index (e.g. Fidelity Index UK Fund, 0.06%, Vanguard FTSE U.K. All Share Index Unit Trust, 0.06%). But I'm struggling to find any ETFs that do the same - perhaps only SPDR FTSE UK All Share UCITS ETF but this is much more expensive at 0.20% TER. I'd prefer not to re-constitute it from separate ETFs myself due to re-balancing. Has anyone found anything else that's similar?

    So only the fund I already mentioned, with a 0.2% TER :(

    Cheaper platform fees, IJ, or another reason for preferring ETFs?

    Yes, lower fees - looking to move from OIEC to ETF as part of a larger portfolio within an existing ISA wrapper, so I can't really use another platform that's free for OIECs in this case due to difficulty partially transferring. I can gradually build up new investments elsewhere fine, but hoped to optimise existing ones too.

    LCUK tracks the FTSE100 and about half the FTSE250 for 0.04% OCF (uses Morningstar UK index).
    HUKX and HMCX get you the FTSE350 for ~0.08% OCF (FTSE100 + FTSE250)
    The FTSE All Share captures 98% of UK market cap, while FTSE350 captures 96.6%, and Morningstar UK seems to be a little over 95%. Is the remaining 1.4-3% going to be material to returns?

    Thanks - agreed about not sweating the very small stuff. I'm guessing I need about a 9:1 ratio of ftse100:ftse250 to weigh at roughly market cap and reduce rebalancing need.
