An extra hour of daylight
Take yourself outdoors and enjoy the extra light over the weekend with some sporty springtime action. The Sport Relief London Mile will see thousands of runners meeting on The Mall to do their bit for charity, while a hardy few will be braving the elements by taking a dip in one of the city's outdoor swimming pools over the weekend.

Fun in the sun
Take a stroll amongst the flowers at Kew Gardens or get a taste for country living at the spring fair in Islington over the weekend the clocks go forward. Or if your mind is turning to spring cleaning and getting a new, fresh look for your pad, there's also the Ideal Home Show for inspiration.
