Loads of forestry places do em online (ilooked last year) however the delivery charges are high (put me right off to be honest)
Best option is try to find them locally and pick them up yourself unless you have deep pockets of course

Ask your local Wildlife Trust. They may have been coppicing one of their reserves.

Allotment Forestery has good local listings: http://www.allotmentforestry.com/
but unless you can find them very local it'll be postage/petrol that'll cost as others have said.

I bought 15 hazel saplings (18inch high - 50p each) yesterday - But it'll be a good couple of years before I'll have any useful poles... i'll have to wait...

There are some very old hazel coppices near us and some could be disappearing very soon.

The coppices are down an old railway that is now a walk so no vehicles can get there - need to go when it's dark because may look a bit odd carrying hazel poles on a bike. :shock:
