B&Q should do them with the loft insulation.

Whereabouts are you? you might get a better response rather than a generic answer.

Ebay.

Some people ship it as packing material and its dirt cheap and comes in just about every possible size and thickness.

I've seen thin rolls in Focus, could be built up to the thickness you want. Usually where the coving and ceiling tiles are.
