Piggy-bank.

Child Trust Funds can help play a role in providing all children, and particularly those from low income families, with an important financial asset for the future.

As part of our overall strategy to tackle child poverty, our Welsh premium to the Child Trust Fund will help to boost the savings of children in Wales and improve opportunities later in life.

The aim is to provide a £50 Welsh premium for all eligible children and a further £50 for those children living in low income households. £2.5million has been made available in 2010-11.
