From Lego to Life Goals: Helping Children Build Their Future with Hanley Economic
Every big dream starts with small steps-just like building a Lego masterpiece, brick by brick. At Hanley Economic Building Society, we believe that learning to save is one of the most important skills a child can develop. That’s why we’re proud to offer savings accounts designed especially for young people, helping them turn pocket money into powerful life goals.
Why Start Saving Young?
Children are naturally curious and love to learn. By introducing them to saving early, you’re giving them the tools to manage money confidently as they grow. Whether they’re saving for their first bike, a new game, or even their future education, every deposit helps build healthy financial habits that last a lifetime.
Our Children’s Savings Accounts
Our Young Savers account is perfect for children who want to watch their money grow. With a competitive interest rate and easy access to their savings, it’s a great way for kids to learn the value of putting money aside-whether it’s birthday gifts, pocket money, or a reward for helping around the house.
Key features:
- Open from birth up to age 17
- Competitive interest rates
- Easy access to savings
- Parental or guardian oversight
Looking for a longer-term way to give your child a head start? Our Junior ISA is a tax-free savings account designed to help you save for your child’s future. Family and friends can contribute, and the money is locked away until your child turns 18-perfect for university, a first car, or even a deposit on their first home.
Key features:
- Tax-free savings up to the annual allowance
- Anyone can contribute (parents, grandparents, friends)
- Funds are locked in until age 18
- A great way to build a nest egg for adulthood
Making Saving Fun
We know that saving should be exciting, not a chore! Here are a few tips to help your child get started:
- Set a goal together: Whether it’s a new toy or a special day out, having a target makes saving more rewarding.
- Track progress: Use a savings chart or app to watch their money grow.
- Celebrate milestones: When they reach a savings goal, celebrate together-big or small!
