Petition Action

Make St Georges Day a bank holiday in England, and St Davids Day in Wales

Additional Information

We would like the Government to make St George's Day (23 April) a bank holiday in England and St David's Day (1 March) a bank holiday in Wales.

England and Wales get fewer bank holidays than most European countries and less than N.Ireland which is part of the UK.

St Patricks Day and St Andrews Day are already bank holidays so its unfair that England and Wales are not treated the same.
