Larkspur Ethical Growth
Growth with a conscience. It never invests in oil, tobacco, arms or gambling, and backs the five companies with the strongest recent rise.
Open Ethical growth: Leaves out companies on its exclusion list, then holds those whose prices have risen most compared with their recent average, in equal amounts.

Buy and sell units
Every deal is at the latest unit price (£13.8676), not the next one. There is no dealing fee or stamp duty on units. In a Stocks and Shares ISA there is no tax; in a General Investment Account capital gains tax applies when you sell at a gain, and distributions count as dividends.
