Index Fund and Asset Allocation advice for 22 year-old based in the UK (£10,000)

Hi

This is my first post. I have been studying finance for some time and have decided that i wish to put £10,000 into index funds. I have chosen this approach as i have concluded that the chances of beating the market with individual stocks is beyond my scope of abilities.

I am 22F, based in the UK. I am in university studying Supply Chain Management, so i believe i will have a high earning career in front of me. I should also note that i have a high risk tolerance and wish to prioritise capital appreciation. I do not wish to change my allocation from now until retirement - i'm looking for high-risk/growth set it and forget it strategy.

I will be investing within a stocks and shares ISA (where gains will be tax free).

Please review my choice of funds and advise me on allocation and exposure to the economies i have selected. I don't wish to include property in this, as i plan on buying some rentals and getting exposure that way, and bonds don't deliver enough growth for my goals.

Thank you!

i see this in the majority of finance books and know it is as safe as equities get.

This is the best performing UK index and contains Mid-caps which generate good growth and are more secure than small caps.
