The company’s charging network includes popular sites such as McArthurGlen outlets in York, Bridgend, and the East Midlands, over 500 chargers at Greene King pubs across the UK and several hotels and spas under the Exclusive brand. They will offer free charging for drivers from 12:01am until 23:59 on Saturday 9 September.

As sector specialists in the hospitality, leisure and retail industries, Raw wants to celebrate World EV Day by giving back to drivers through offering free charging across the UK, to further highlight the growing importance of affordable, reliable destination charging. By providing EV charging, businesses can attract new and existing EV-driving customers through word-of-mouth and third-party platforms.

Raw’s other major clients include Merlin Entertainments, Bespoke Hotels and National Trust alongside commercial property owners where the company is developing brownfield land into their own Charge Yards including new developments in Bishop Auckland and Croydon.

“For a second year in a row, we’d like to celebrate World EV Day by giving back to the EV drivers of the UK,” said Jason Simpson, CEO, Raw Charging. “Our partnerships with businesses in the hospitality, leisure and retail sectors show the importance of destination charging and we’d like to thank our customers at these venues by offering free charging on 9 September 2023. We look forward to continuing our rollout of destination charging across the UK and Europe to help aid the transition to EVs.”
