(not legal advice but) I am pretty sure that employment contract 'IP clauses' in the UK can only capture provisions within your employee 'duties'. So if for example you work in R&D for a trading algo fin-tech company, the company has no say in any 'Image Processing' IP you produce out-of-office if you wanted to contribute to ffmpeg or similar projects.
