Hi Gavin,
I'm afraid the registration you gave us came back as a Hyundai on Cartell.ie, so we assume there's a typo there. However, looking at the 2008 Focus:
1.4/1.6 petrol: timing belt
1.6/2.0 TDCi diesel: timing belt, with small timing chain at back of engine joining the camshafts
1.8 TDCi diesel: timing belt, with separate belt or chain for high-pressure pump drive
1.8/2.0 petrol: timing chain
Hopefully that covers your car, but come back to us if not, with more details.
