What we cover on Dates & Times

Plain-English calculators and data pages on dates and time: live countdowns, exact age, days between dates, the long-weekend maximiser that plans leave around the UK bank holidays, and statutory holiday entitlement. Each tool shows the date maths and cites the official UK source, such as the gov.uk Bank Holidays API.

Editorial responsibility

Oliver Mackman is the named editor of Dates & Times and the person accountable for its editorial standards, sourcing and corrections. He is a director of Best Business Loans Ltd (Companies House 16833937), the company that operates Dates & Times, a record you can verify on the Companies House register linked below, and he holds the ORCID iD 0009-0007-1385-6392. His role is editorial oversight and source discipline rather than subject-matter authorship of individual entries: he is responsible for making sure every figure is backed by a named, official UK source such as the gov.uk Bank Holidays API or the Working Time Regulations, and that corrections are handled promptly when a reader flags something wrong or out of date. How the site sources and checks its numbers is set out in full in our editorial policy. Dates, bank holidays and entitlement figures are general information; the site does not give legal or employment advice.
