It looks like a fairly common fault on the Worcesters, most decent engineers will be able to diagnose and fix it quite quickly. Not something you could fix yourself though unfortunately you will need a Gas Safe registered plumber to sort. Why not post your location and maybe someone in here could help?
 
If it’s causing an issue, and the part I’m thinking of, you could try turning off the cold water inlet on the boiler, however this would result in no hot water.
