My granddaughter is going to Portugal for a week very soon. She has a Vodafone Basics £6 per month SIM which cannot be used outside the UK.
What is the best SIM I could get for her to enable her to keep in touch while she's away?

Tell her to use a WiFi hotspot and use Whatsapp or similar, absolutely no point in another sim for a whole week.0

I suspect it depends on how much mobile usage there will be.
If wifi is not an option then here is one thing to consider ...
Vodafone PAYG sim for £1/day
On Vodafone Pay As You Go, it’s possible to use your phone in 50 European destinations at no extra charge. The same £1 daily spend limit applies when you’re travelling in the EU, giving you unlimited minutes, unlimited texts and up to 500MB of data.

£5 top up and £1/day
You will, of course, have a different phone number whilst using this temporary SIM but I guess you would already know that.
Hope this helps0 -
