British Standard Time

British Summer Time (BST) is the practice of moving the clocks forward by one hour in the spring and back by one hour in the autumn to make better use of daylight during the longer daylight months. It typically begins in late March and ends in late October. This adjustment helps maximize daylight in the evenings, reducing energy use, and providing more daylight for outdoor activities. BST is one of several time zone changes around the world aimed at optimizing daylight hours, aligning the timetable more closely with natural daylight during the warmer months.
