Highlights
It's good to see that the charging infrastructure sector is reported to be on track to deliver a robust electric vehicle charging network by 2030. Crucially, where the chargepoints are located is as important as how many there are if we want to make the transition to electric a success. We agree with the sector that there is still more work to be done.
We know first-hand from our customers, who are representative of future widespread adoption of electric vehicles, that the accessibility and affordability of charging are major concerns. Many do not have the ability to charge at home, and public infrastructure is often inaccessible to disabled drivers due to narrow parking spaces, lack of dropped kerbs and heavy charging cables. Payment systems can also be complicated and confusing.
We must work together to share information and insight, to develop solutions, to shape policy, and to change the public narrative. We believe if the switch to electric works for our customers, it will work for everyone.
For years the Rough Guide to Accessible Britain has been an essential tool for those travelling with additional accessibility needs, providing the confidence to explore what Britain has to offer without limitations. Today, I'm delighted to announce the launch of its 10th edition.
We know from our customers’ experiences that planning an accessible trip can present tricky logistics and cause anxiety, and it is our goal to create solutions which empower our customers to move freely. This 10th edition is a testament to our progress in help make British travel more inclusive and accessible for everyone.
I hope the guide inspires our customers and their families to discover new destinations and create unforgettable memories. You can download the guide here:
