I would guess you would be safe to rely on this for the area you work in:
https://www.gov.uk/bank-holidays
On the other hand (exc. Scotland) you could take a punt on the FOIA approach and discount any public holiday anywhere in the UK ! I doubt if that's correct though because it is based on the specific text of s10(6) FOIA - Scots do not have that luxury under s73 FOISA anyway.
