Hi Joe, This would be great. Welcome to the list. I used to work at the GLA (2009-16) and am glad to see you proposing this.
Others will have a better idea of the process, but I'd think a first step would be to create a wiki page and set out the datasets you have, indicating for each one any licensing conditions/issues, what fields you'd import and a check on the current data already existing. On the latter point, for example, there are already quite a few charging stations mapped (https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/GVx) and we wouldn't want to duplicate those with your import. You can either go through them one by one, deleting duplicates from your dataset before importing (or merging data to add new fields), or stick the dataset up and invite people to manually check and copy across each charging station.
