Afternoon all, first time poster on this board so please be gentle!

I'm looking for advice/guidance on a the type of fund to invest in. Why? I have never invested in one before and I'm completely bewildered by the choice out there and do not know where to start.
I'm currently invested in individual stocks which are not doing well and have an income from military pension & BTL, so in the interests of diversity I'm looking for a suitable fund. I'm risk adverse, looking at 5 year term, can do lump sum initially and possible drip feed very month. Growth rather than income. Looking to retire as early as possible (aren't we all!)
I appreciate this is a bit finger in the air but I'd welcome some thoughts and opinions please.

Thanks.
