My Swan head mixer tap is dripping, I have changed the washer and still dripping. I have noticed that it doesnt drip when the dishwasher is on. Thoughts
 
Maybe it's the other washer which needs replacing. It's possible for a minor drip to cease when another draw-off is on due to the negative pressure it creates. If changing the other washer doesn't solve the issue then please come back and let us know.

How to identify dripping tap.
Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?
