Dear Heather, in response to your question, it really depends exactly what you’re looking to do, I assume from your question this is something you’re wanting the parents to keep control over, if they were to be trustees or to be a signatory on the account they will need to sign something, if its just for you to keep control over, then probably not. If you have a bit more detail about what you’re trying to achieve please let me know. My contact details below, thanks, Steve
