Child Trust fund - turning investment into maturity

Invest your child's government voucher in a Tesco Child Trust Fund. It'll stand them in good stead for the big, wide world!

The Child Trust Fund is designed to make it easier for you and child to save for important future milestones such as going to college or university, buying their first car, or for their first home deposit.

You should be aware that the value of your investments can go down as well as up and you may not get back the original amount of your investment. Please read the Important Information.

What's in it for you and your child?

  • It's an easy, tax efficient way to save for your child's future
  • Save from just £10 a month and make a real difference to your child's fund
  • Family and friends can also make payments into your child's fund (Up to a maximum of £3,600 a year)
  • Don't miss out! Check the expiry date on your child's voucher; it may be soon. When the voucher expires the government will invest it on your child's behalf

The Tesco Child Trust Fund - building for their future...

  • All eligible children born after 1 September 2002 can benefit from a government voucher for a Child Trust Fund. Tesco has teamed up with Aviva Investors to bring you the Tesco Child Trust Fund.
  • Growth in the Child Trust Fund account is free from income and capital gains tax, making it one of the most efficient ways to save for your child's future.
