Well that was another one of your useful reply Tony.

Probably the jumper in the stopcock has become stuck to the valve seat. You need someone to isolate or freeze the water supply upstream of the stop-cock and then dismantle the stop cock and replace the washer. It's not something that can be fixed by internet advice.

Sounds like the stopcock needs replacing, you have to turn the water supply to the whole building off for that.
Wouldn't try to diy that if I were you.
