There's been a rash of these questions lately about different makes and models. The answer is always the same - ask your local Ford agent and abide by their advice. It's not worth trying to stretch the time to save money. If the belt fails you face a BIG bill to rebuild the engine (about �1000 on a friend's Astra).
Belt changes are usually recommended after a time (typically 4 years) or a mileage (say 48000 miles), whichever comes first. At a guess I'd say you will need yours done as soon as possible.
