The easiest (not the cheapest) way is to take the certificate in to a branch of Natwest Bank and they will, I think, immediately sell the shares for you and give you a cheque less their commission.

Before you sell beware of capital gains tax!
Unless you need the money right now it may be better to split the sale half now and half after the start of the next tax year in April. You will be risking a price difference of course until April.

Is this some kind of SAYE scheme through your employer?
If so did you not get details of how to sell when the savings matured.
Whoever you sell through you will have to jump through hoops to provide Identification etc unless you already hold an account with them.
