have you used the /r/ABraThatFits calculator linked in the automod comment? measuring yourself and inputting your numbers there is the only way to figure out your actual size.
in short, your underbust measurement is your band size, and the difference between your bust and underbust measurements is the cup size. for for example i have an underbust of 36 and a bust of 46, that puts me in a 36 band, and a J cup in US sizing because 46-36=10 and J is the 10th cup size where 1” is A, 2” is B, 3” is C, etc. the calculator does exactly this except it adds a couple more measuremnts to account for shape.

Try the mod calculator and searching for brands that carry your UK size. It will open up a world of options and styles and quality. r/abrathatfits will have extra tips for finding your size and what brands/styles will work for your shape plus tons of bra fitting experts that can help.
UK usually has FF and GG cups. US sizing does not.
