    The CTF has a defined maturity date so that wont fit in with your 10 year requirement. You would have to use a different tax wrapper if you want the money out in 10 years.

    Typically unit trusts or investment trusts are the way to do it. £20pm doesnt give much choice given the small amount but there are still a few that will go to that level.

    Please start your own thread and not hijack someone elses. It isnt fair on the OP. However, you should read the CTF thread at the top of the forum.
