Petition Make Valentine day a bank holiday

The UK has the lowest number of bank holidays in the western world with the EU averaging 12 days we only get 8 in a year.

More details

Making St Valentine's day a bank holiday will give people the opportunity to spend time with their loved ones, and take holidays.

We believe an extra bank holiday would also help improve the wellbeing of workers, by giving many a break between the last bank holiday in January and the Easter break.
