Try the UK AIP which gives opening hours for all licensed airfields. Most of the bigger airports are H24 all year, but I'm not sure about the smaller ones.

Thanks for the reference, I'm sure there used to be a NOTAM or other notification issued around this time which confirmed opening hours/limitations for Xmas.

niknak,
I'm not convinced. Film processing is not that cheap these days!

Normally each individual airfield (if non H24) will publish their own NOTAM mid December.
