The temperature control tap in my old shouwer wasn’t working (water always cold) so I took off the taps and panel to find that the temp control tap has a leak. Water comes out of the hole to the front.

I’ll have to turn the water off tomorrow to sort it as there’s no obvious isolator near the shower tap, but I’ve also no idea what I can do to fix it. I’ve attached a few photos, any suggestions are welcome...

A dripping flow valve on a bar mixer shower (which is what you appear to have) requires a replacement flow cartridge - there are literally hundreds of different types.

This youtube video explains the basics, and the uploader - the shower doctor - may be able to identify the replacement part.
