Company not permitting holiday

Advice for a mate
Mate works for a well known builders merchants , truth is he is slumming it as he is a well experienced class 1 driver doing multidrop in a class 2 with hiab.
His area manager twigged that he is switched on unlike most of their drivers and wanted to train him on some new equipment and then for him to go around the depots training the other drivers. Due to this training likely to happen at any time he was told he couldnt take any holiday until after the course, they have messed him around for 4 months and now the training course is finally booked for January , his leave year ends at the end of the year and he has 9 days holiday left
They have told him they are too busy and he cant have holiday nor will they allow him to carry it over , his line manager says he shouldve taken it earlier this year....doh!!
What can he do ??
I've told him to write a letter to his line manager (cc the area manager) explaining why he didnt book holiday earlier and requesting either the holiday before year end, to be carried over to next year or to be paid extra.
Anything else he should so??
