Package Holiday flights times changed.

Hello,
I would first like to start by saying I have specific learning difficulties so apologise for any mistakes and grammar errors.

I booked a package holiday with easyJet holidays a few months ago and they have now informed be that they have changed the original flight time from 14:25 to 23:50
Because of this I will miss out on the first day of my holiday and will miss events that I separately booked on the first day.
As far as I'm aware I'm not entitled to any compensation under the Flight Compensation Regulation EC 261/2004 because the have notified me more then 14 days before departure.
  
Am I wrong in thinking I may have some rights under Section 4 of The Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018, where it says "If any of the travel services are not performed in accordance with the package travel contract, the organiser must remedy the lack of conformity within a reasonable period set by the traveller unless that".

If anyone can provide me with any help/guidance It will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

    https://www.easyjet.com/en/holidays/info/booking-conditions defines "a change in your flight departure time by more than 12 hours" as a significant change, therefore implying that a change of less than 12 hours is insignificant, and denying any redress.

    However, if you're not flying until 23:50, does this mean that you'll have immediate access to the accommodation at your destination on arrival?  If they change the number of nights, that is deemed significant, under schedule 1 of those regulations....
