Water Hammer

Any simple tips on how to cure this very irritating noise/vibration. Just started a week or two ago when turning taps on.

    No work for a long time. House 15 years old and boiler (Worcester) serviced every year. Could it be anything to do with the last chap who serviced the boiler turned the hot water and the central heating dials up higher on the boiler? Thye were both on number 2 out of 5. Now they are number 4?
