£20 Amazon gift certificate

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 an amazon.co.uk gift certificate worth £20.
