  The rule is that current year contributions need to be kept together, so if you have £15K of current year money in with £35K of prior year money then you'll easily be able to accomplish this, whatever size of transfer you have in mind - any transfer of less than £15K can be attributed to prior year money or anything above that can be nominated to include current year contributions.
  
  https://www.gov.uk/individual-savings-accounts/transferring-your-isa:

  If you want to transfer money you’ve invested in an ISA during the current year, you must transfer all of it.
  
  For money you invested in previous years, you can choose to transfer all or part of your savings.

  Note that individual providers may layer their own rules on top of the actual scheme ones, so aren't compelled to accept transfers, or can choose not to handle partial ones....

  I think you can transfer any amount up to £35k or the whole £50k.
  Does the account allow a £0 balance or will you have to close it?

  Those aren't the only options though - if OP wanted to transfer between £35K and £50K, there's nothing to stop them from moving all of this year's £15K plus any amount between £20K and £35K from prior year money.
  
  Assuming partial transfers are permitted by the providers concerned of course....
