You give way to people crossing, not people about to cross
They don't have to be in the road to have started "crossing". You still need to give way to people who want to cross but have not yet set foot in the road.
Greenbank-
You only need to give way when they are on the crossing. You should look out for people approaching but the HC does not say you need to give way to them. Of course, I reckon you should out of courtesy stop if you see someone approaching or waiting.

Zebra crossings. As you approach a zebra crossinglook out for pedestrians waiting to cross and be ready to slow down or stop to let them cross you MUST give way **when a pedestrian has moved onto a crossing** allow more time for stopping on wet or icy roads do not wave or use your horn to invite pedestrians across; this could be dangerous if another vehicle is approaching be aware of pedestrians approaching from the side of the crossing. A zebra crossing with a central island is two separate crossings
