Daylight Saving Time (DST) in the United Kingdom for 2025 commences on March 30th at 01:00 Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Clocks will advance one hour, marking the transition to British Summer Time (BST). This shift results in clocks displaying 02:00 BST.
The implementation of DST is designed to make better use of daylight during the longer days of summer. By advancing clocks, individuals experience an extra hour of daylight in the evening. Historically, this practice was introduced to conserve energy and boost productivity. The shift can have implications for various sectors, including energy consumption, transportation, and leisure activities.
Understanding the specific date and time of this transition is important for scheduling purposes. Individuals and organizations should adjust their clocks and calendars accordingly to avoid disruptions. Further resources are available from official government websites and timekeeping institutions.
