Here’s How FAWB Has Your Back
Child Trust Fund Awareness Campaign – What You Need to Know
💰 Born between 1 September 2002 and 2 January 2011 in the UK? You could be entitled to a Child Trust Fund (CTF) — a tax-free savings account set up by the government.
🏦 The government automatically opened these accounts to help kickstart your adult financial journey.
📉 As of early 2025, over £1.4 billion remains unclaimed — nearly 1 million young people haven’t accessed their money.
