£40 of Vouchers

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 £40 of vouchers, which can be spent in either Mothercare or Early Learning Centre stores.

Remember, to qualify for our voucher offer, your Direct Debit must be for more than £10 a month. If it’s the first Direct Debit to pay into a Baby Bond® Choice, it must be for at least £50 a month.

Vouchers will be sent within 28 days of receipt of the first Direct Debit payment and can be spent in either Mothercare or Early Learning Centre stores.

Please note that this offer may be withdrawn at any time.
