Thanks I managed to figure it out with Automation. I think the best way to do this (from what I know) is when a component field changes it will update the sub-task components. I wanted to avoid any general editing also triggering the update (eg. just changing some text in a description field for example). I probably should check to see if the component being changed is for a Story or Task... but this should be fine for now. Thanks for replying straight away
