Baby Bond®
Our popular CTF
Baby Bond® is the name of our most popular Stakeholder Child Trust Fund account. It's designed to help you give your child a great financial headstart.
The Child Trust Fund (CTF) is a
wonderful investment opportunity for your little one. But on its
own the value of their initial Child Trust Fund voucher and any
future Government payments won't be enough to let them do the
things they may really want to one day - such as go to university
or provide a deposit for their first home.
The good news is that you – and anyone else who wants to – can
between you contribute up to £1,200 a year to your
child's CTF account.
What's more if you set up a regular Direct Debit, you could receive
up to £30 worth of Mothercare vouchers.
