    I had an operation in mid April and I was on certified sick for the May bank holiday and it looks like the same for the June bank holiday.
    Am I entitled to claim annual leave hours back for missing these days?

    Yes I think so.

    Sick leave during public holidays
    If you are a full time worker who is on sick leave during a public holiday, you are entitled to benefit for the public holiday you missed. If you are a part-time worker on sick leave during a public holiday, you would be entitled to time off work for the public holiday provided you worked for your employer at least 40 hours in the previous 5-week period.

    However, you are not entitled to the public holiday if you are absent from work immediately before the public holiday and you have been off work for more than 26 weeks due to an ordinary illness or accident, or for more than 52 weeks due to an occupational accident.
