We were delighted to interview Andrew Turner who has been leading a campaign to raise awareness around the issues of accessibility to Child Trust Funds and other savings instruments by young people with special needs and disabilities who lack mental capacity.
It is estimated that around 80,000 trust funds cannot be accessed by young people. Andrew has been campaigning for many years to help ensure that vulnerable young people, such as his son, are able to access vital funds that will enhance their lives.
Andrew has been working with organisations such as OneFamily to help make simple changes to accessing these funds that could significantly improve young people's lives.
