FREE EV Charging - Don't Miss Out!
Mark your calendars: Tuesday, 9th September 2025
Tuesday, 9th September 2025 - World EV Day
Why pay for your next charge when you can get it completely free? RAW Charging is offering complimentary EV charging at hundreds of UK locations for one day only.
The Numbers That Matter
A typical EV charge costs between £10-30 depending on your vehicle and the charger speed. On 9th September, that's money you keep in your pocket while still getting a full battery.
For context: if you usually spend £20 per charge and do this twice a week, you're looking at over £2,000 annually on charging costs, so every free charge adds up and helps your wallet!

Why This Matters Beyond One Day
This isn't just about a single free charge. It's about discovering convenient charging points you might not have known existed. Many of these locations offer competitive regular rates too, potentially saving you money year-round.
