Whilst pondering the passing of time, there’s a quick mnemonic to help you remember; ‘Spring forward, fall back’ or as I say ‘March forward, fall back’ either way is helpful.
Sunday 30 March 2025 at 1am, the clocks will be moved forward an hour to British Summer Time (BST). Yep, that means an hour less in bed unfortunately on mother’s day. There are perks to the change of clocks such as it will get lighter an hour later in the morning and the lovely long evenings to enjoy a barbecue or a late evening walk along your favourite trail.
British Summer Time will last until 26 October – when once again at 2am we’ll be changing the clocks back to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and that all important extra hour in bed.
It’s helpful to know that that clock change always happens on the last Sunday of March and the last Sunday of October. The majority of devices will change the time for you automatically, don’t forget that those powered by batteries likely won’t and most cars don’t either.
