The main problem with what you propose is that is isn’t compliant with the specific section of the regulations that relate to supplies for EV charging:-
a) it needs to be protected by an A type RCD
b) it more than likely needs to have O-PEN protection
c) it needs to have a socket that states that it’s suitable for EV charging
As for the SWA into a plug…. I wouldn’t do it that way as you cannot properly terminate SWA into a plug
