About the time in England
England is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC +1 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 25 October 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal England day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 08:00–16:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Sunrise today lands at 05:55 and sunset at 08:16 local time, giving 14h 21m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (52.16, -0.70) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in England.
