People across the UK will need to set their clocks forward one hour on Sunday 30 March, marking the start of British Summer Time. But why do we do this?

The change was first introduced during World War One to save energy by making better use of daylight. By moving our clocks forward in spring, we get more light in the evenings when most people are awake and active.

While some people might feel tired from losing an hour of sleep, the good news is we’ll have brighter evenings for playing outside, having barbecues and enjoying outdoor activities.
