Under UK Law:

The trustee's must authorise the release of the property to the beneficiary(s)

The beneficiaries under certain trust law can demand the property of the trust, but the trust deed must state a legal 'absolute' entitlement to that property. If the beneficiary has an absolute right to that property and has attained the stated age at which he or she should receive that property then the trustee's must authorise the payment to the beneficiary.

IF it is a discretionary trust then you are only a 'potential' beneficiary and have no legal right to demand the property
