Good Afternoon
I have been awarded approx 10K in shares for the company i work for as a bonus payment
I want to sell them before April can someone give me the cheapest way to sell and the likely costs involved.
Any recommendations would be welcome because i do not normally trade in shares.

Have you already paid income tax on receipt of the shares?
Or would selling them create an income tax liability that could be avoided by holding them for 3-5 years?
Halifax share dealing might be one option to sell them through.0 -
There is no Tax liability0

Phew that's quite some request because there are loads of them mostly with very similar charges. For example Barclays and hargreaves Lansdown standard dealing charges when I last looked were just 55p cheaper than the standard dealing charges of Halifax.
According to MSE a cheap starting point is online share dealing platforms and I link to MSE's article:

There's DeGiro which is even cheaper at £1.75 + 0.004% according to the blurb on their home page. Pretty much the darling of the financial press back in 2015 when it opened in the U.K.
