With Christmas a distant memory and Valentine's Day done and dusted, Easter is the next big event on the family calendar.

 

If you plan your days off work carefully around bank holidays then you could benefit from longer holidays.

Easter is one of the times you can do just that, by tagging your holidays onto the Easter weekend.

But when is it this year? Here's all you need to know for Easter 2018.

The next bank holiday is Easter where we have a four-day weekend thanks to Good Friday and Easter Monday.
