Opening hours

Our payroll team are working throughout the Christmas period but many of our other departments will be closed from 25th December 2025 and will open again for business as usual on 5th January 2026.

It is also helpful for us to know your Christmas opening times too and we would be very grateful if you would drop us a line with that information.
