Dom, can't give you a specific answer, but there are little cottage industry types doing this all over the place. You should be able to find someone in the Bradford/Leeds area. Ask at your nearest bike shop. Should only cost a few pounds

Crusader Leathers at Chesterfield would do the job. The are pretty good, but call and check forst as they sometimes can't do leathers with welded in armour.

If you're as much of a cheapskate as you make out, get a patch of leather (make sure it's suitable though, so nice and thick) as cheap as you can (hint: charity shops for old jackets, gloves, boots, etc) and then cut to size and sew it on yourself. You don't need any special tools and as long as you make a decent job of it (stitch round it three times for safety!) then it should be fine.
