Can I transfer a child trust fund into a OneFamily Junior ISA?

What is the difference between a stocks and shares and a cash junior ISA?

With a cash junior ISA, your money isn't invested, it grows by earning interest like a current account does.

A stocks and shares junior ISA, like OneFamily's Junior ISA, invests your money into different assets such as company shares, bonds, fixed interest assets and property. The price of these change daily, so your account value will go up and down.

Our Junior ISA invests in stocks and shares. Stocks and shares have good growth potential and are usually considered a good option if you're investing over the longer term as this helps even-out changes in the stock market. However, this comes with some risk as the value of stocks and shares can go down as well as up. This is normal for stocks and shares, but it does mean that there is a risk your child could get back less than is paid in.

Is my child eligible for a OneFamily Junior ISA?

A child is eligible for a OneFamily Junior ISA if:

They are under 16 years old
They are a UK resident, or if you, as their parent or legal guardian, are working overseas as a Crown Servant or you're married/in a registered civil partnership with someone who is.

If a child already has a child trust fund, they cannot open a OneFamily Junior ISA. They can, however, transfer their child trust fund to a OneFamily Junior ISA.

There must be at least £100 in the junior ISA that you're transferring to OneFamily.

Even more reasons to transfer

Our Junior ISAs invests in stocks and shares. In every 10-year period since 2000, stocks and shares have out-grown interest rates*, but the value of your investments could go down as well as up, meaning your child could get back less than you've put in.

We have over 45 years of experience as a trusted provider of financial products for children and adults, looking after over £5.5 billion for nearly 2 million customers.** If you transfer to us, you can have peace of mind that your money will be in experienced hands.

On top of that, OneFamily is a mutual society. This means we don't have shareholders to pay dividends to, so instead we reinvest in our members and our communities.

OneFamily members can also apply for a Young Person's Education Grant of up to £250, to help a young person between the ages of 15 and 19 cover the costs of education or training. You can apply for yourself or on behalf of someone else.
