It has been suggested that this is a Green Shield Bug but to me it
doesn't look quite like the pictures I've seen. Maybe it's a young one?

Can anyone confirm? And as it's the only one I've ever seen is it
fairly safe to ignore it rather than destroy it?

Yes. It s a shield bug. A general rule of thumb is if it can move
quickly its a predator and if it moves slowly a sap sucker.
Unless there is a plague of them live and let live.

If you do try to squash it beware that they smell terrible.
(they have that as a defence mechanism if predated)

It's alternate name of stink bug is very descriptive.

Thank you! It is a very attractive little thing and quite welcome to
the lone strawberry it is resting on so I will do it no harm.

British Bugs is a useful website. For shield bugs, see:
<https://www.britishbugs.org.uk/gallery/heteroptera/Pentatomoidea/pentatomoidea.html>

I recently used the website to identify the 4th instar of Nezara
virudula which I had found in my garden. (It's the Southern Green
Shieldbug - see
<https://www.britishbugs.org.uk/heteroptera/idcards/life_stages.html>),
