Recharging Round Britain Day 2 - 14 July 2026

DAY 2

Today, Tuesday July 2026, we continued with Day 2 of Recharging Round Britain, where we try as closely as we can to recreate the route we undertook nearly a decade ago. Hear how we got on today as we travelled from Bodmin, via Falmouth, Exeter, Southampton, Cobham Services eventually to our hotel in Folkestone.

CHARGING SPONSOR

Thanks to our charging sponsor, GRIDSERVE, They have an EV charging network that spans almost the whole of the UK.

While you can just turn up and pay with a debit card or their app, you can also get 25% off charging rates at all 200 of their locations with GRIDSERVE Plus.

GRIDSERVE Plus costs just £7.99/month and can be cancelled at any time, much like many gym memberships, and as well as the discounted charging, there are many other seasonal membership benefits such as EV heathchecks while you charge, pet portraits, and similar.

Many people take out Gridserve Plus for a month at a time to cover a holiday or seasonal travel.
