Ask your probation officer.

Ummmm is correct, the Probation Service supervises prisoners released from prison under licence, the standard conditions require them to live at an approved address and not travel outside the UK.

While each licence is individual, there are some terms which are common to all of them. That includes a restriction on leaving the country. While such a restriction could be varied it would only normally occur under very exceptional circumstances (e.g. to visit a dying relative).
