Does it have to be from there specifically? You can use one from anywhere.
Sharing from experiences of dealing with debt
The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

This site reviews Insolvency Practitioners / their practices. As Kallis3 points out, you are free to use an IP from anywhere in the Country and don't necessarily have to find one on your own doorstep. No matter who you select, you should be offered a face to face meeting and so if you pick someone in the other end of the country they should still offer to meet with you personally.
I would advise speaking to a couple of different people and then making a decision based on the advice you have been given and who you feel most comfortable dealing with as you need to be able to communicate with them.
As others have said www.iva.com is a great starting point as you can see what clients think of their IP's and the level of service they have recieved.
Good luck

Be positive & look after yourself, there are more important things in life than debts....
