adding shares to an ISA

Hi,
I have 2500 shares in a company I worked for via a sharesave scheme, these share certificates are sitting at home in a drawer as the share value rises (or falls)(trending up nicely over the years I've had them tho') & spending dividends as they come along.
Can (or how) do I get them wrapped into an ISA, and what benefit would there be to do so.
paid £5k for them over the time I was with the company, today worth approx, £10k
Hope this isn't too silly a question for this board
thanks in advance

Goggle search on 'bed and isa' but watch the charges! As to advantages ... depends if you are a higher rate tax payer, or liable to pay CGT, or intend to invest further.0
