as BC says, you need a service every 12k or 12 months, whichever comes soonest.

You need a major service every 24k (so it goes, 12k minor, 24k major, 12k minor... etc), and the 48k/4yr service is a biggy.

sorry for being naive here but my last service was 12,000 miles ago and it was minor. Am I due for minor or major next?

cheers

if you had a minor service 12k ago, then yes, this will be a 'major'.

however, there is a difference between a 24k major and a 48k major, so that entirely depends on your cars age/mileage. Have a look in your service book as well, as they tend to mark the 48k services.
