UK employees get 25 days of annual leave plus the 8 England and Wales bank holidays, so 33 days in a full holiday year. Leave accrues in advance and is pro-rated if you join or leave part way through the year, which runs from 1 January to 31 December. You can carry over up to 5 unused days, which must be taken by 31 March. See Annual leave and public holidays (UK).
