CLOCK CHANGE: Please remember to move your clocks forward one hour this Saturday evening/Sunday morning.

Under the Summer Time Act of 1916, clocks in the UK are put forward by one hour at 1am on the last Sunday in March, and then back one hour at 2am on the last Sunday in October.

The period we are now entering, when the clocks are one hour ahead, is called British Summer Time. There’s more daylight in the evenings and less in the mornings (which is why it is sometimes called Daylight Saving Time).

When the clocks go back, the UK is on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
