Peugeot 208 battery problem

Car: Peugeot 208
Variant: 208 active
Model Year: 2016
Categories: Leaks & Noises
Bought my 65 plate Peugeot 208 March 2020 on the day of lockdown. Little usage and battery flat needing jumped several times even after running it. New battery Jan '21 and Jan '22 flat again even although car being used. New battery purchased this week but there MUST be a trickle leak draining the charge. How do l find out what's causing it?

You need to check your alternator is charging o.k , especially when loaded . If that is fine , check for a parasitic drain ,
