Don't Forget to Fall Back: Daylight Saving Time Ends This Weekend

Get Ready to Gain an Hour of Sleep

As the days grow shorter and the nights grow longer, it's time to bid farewell to Daylight Saving Time. Remember to set your clocks back one hour at 2:00 AM on Sunday morning, 27th October 2024.

This annual time change can sometimes lead to confusion, so it's important to plan ahead. By setting your clocks back before you go to bed on Saturday night, you'll wake up to a later sunrise on Sunday morning.

Why Do We Change the Clocks?

Daylight Saving Time was originally implemented to conserve energy by shifting daylight hours to later in the day. While its effectiveness is debated, it remains a tradition in many countries.

Tips for Adjusting to the Time Change

• Prepare Your Devices: Ensure your electronic devices, including smartphones, computers, and smart home devices, are set to automatically adjust to the time change.
• Be Mindful of Sleep Patterns: Give your body time to adjust to the new sleep schedule.

By following these tips, you can minimise the disruption caused by the time change and enjoy the extra hour of sleep.
