    If they are closing the office then that will make you redundanct.

    When is the office closing if this is not for a while yet there may be room to negotiate?

    If your job will relocate then they should consider offering you the job at the new location.

    Talk to ACAS they have not followed the correct procedure.

    IS the car lease related to your job?
