I get 25 days per year plus the usual 8 or so bank holidays. But I don't work Mondays, so its pro-rata

The bank holidays are:
New Years Day
Good Friday
Easter Monday
May Bank Holiday
Spring Bank Holiday
Summer Bank Holiday
Christmas
Boxing Day

None. I work part-time, but if the office is closed on a day I was supposed to work, I just lose the day.
