Welcome to the Club Beki
Whereabout in the UK are you located

Dickerson and Son in Baldock, Herts are the common recommendation. In reality, a good bodyshop should be ok, look a somewhere that does classic cars. Repair panels are also readily available.

Dickersons are a bit of a distance from you Beki
There is also an IMOC member at Buxton who is very good
Still a fair distance from Grantham though

If nobody can give you a recommendaton, just find a local bodyshop place, maybe use local knowledge of friends that have used someone before.
It's not rocket science to get the arches replaced really. I just used a small two man type bodyshop. Was fine.

Same, I just asked around locally, went for quotes at a few different places and got a feel for the place before deciding.
out of interest, how much are people paying for rear arch work ?
i paid £275 to remove a few minor rust bubbles from my rear arch and weld a little plate in place to replave metal for rear mud flap, they did a very good job, it was finishline near stevenage,
