have you checked the earth leads and the positive lead to starter motor??

My positive connector to the starter motor was corroded through, plus a small wire on the starter motor needed looking at.

Alternator charging OK. belt OK.

How old is the battery ?? 3 years for some and they are done.

Not yet but we jumped it and it seems to be fine now.

Maybe all those short trips and heated seats and demist fans on full and lights at night just drained it?

And the rad fan coming on finished off what little power was left in the battery?
