British Summer Time 2024 Change

British Summer Time 2024 Change. On 27 october clocks will turn back by one hour, as we change from british summer time (bst) to greenwich mean time (gmt). The period when the clocks are 1 hour ahead is called british summer time (bst).

Campaigners have sought a return to british double summer time or a permanent british summer time to save energy and increase the time available in the evenings. The clocks go forward in the uk on march 31 2024 at 1am.
