Yes, mine do. This was such a lovely idea. Introduced by Gordon Brown. Stopped by the coalition.

Yes they do but I believe there are plenty who don’t. Anyone in that age bracket should check. The money is there for them and many of them certainly need it.

I read an article this week in the Radio Times about the government child trust fund. All children born between 2002 and 2011 had £250 invested for them. My grandchildren didn't know about it, as their mum died some years ago. They have now been able to claim it. Do your grandchildren know about it?
