I think you are going to have to give us some clues if you want good advice - how mucy are you expecting to be able to save each month? will you be saving for a purpose - everyone needs a 'rainy day fund', what about a house deposit, are you thinking pensions etc
how old are you? the answers are going to be very differnet if you are 22 or 62.

Same questions as Manzanilla plus 'How soon are you likely to want to use the investment?', 'How much risk are you prepared for?' and 'Do you have any investments yet?'.

Does your employer run a Share Option scheme? If so, that could be a very good investment.

First invest in your company pension scheme to the max that the employer will match, from memory I think the employers matches 6% of your income invested, check that with the pensions advisory service:

after that build savings of £1,000 min in to an ISA for emergency,
then come back on here and ask what next?
Cheers,
