Can anyone suggest a reliable UK supplier please? I need them for a Zumo 595 and a Nuvi 2595.

For my 595, I've found that purchasing direct from Garmin was as cheap, or cheaper, than aftermarket suppliers. I think the unique connector and included circuitry makes it hard for the "generic" battery suppliers to compete.

Having scoured their UK website and Google for a contact email address and drawn a blank it's time for Amazon. Zumo 595 batteries are readily available but while I'm ordering I'll get one for my ancient Nuvi 2595 as it's a far more coherent navigation device than the toy in my 18-month old Audi'

£21.50 delivered from Amazon. I don't seem to be able to post a link to it without publishing my account deetails but a search for Zumo 595 battery should find it.
