Getting rid of 4 credit cards in one go. Effect on credit score?

in Credit cards
I'm currently going through a deputyship referral and its likely I'll have a deputyship in place around December. According to social services I can't have any credit accounts so will have to close down my credit cards and overdraft when the deputyship is in place. Fair enough I don't really need credit cards. I only want good credit worthiness to be able to get a mobile phone contact.
What would happen to my credit score when the deputy rings and shuts 4 credit cards. I will reduce my overdraft down to £0 myself on nationwide apps. Its it going to crash my credit score so I won't be able to get a contract phone in the future? My credit score is 966 out off 999 at the momentl
