Get yourself down to "The Stationary Office" in kingsway, Holborn Tube, this is the place that sells all government publications. They have all of the OGC publications there and i am pretty sure they have exam prepartation as well.
PRINCE is useful as most companies have some sort of tailored prince methodologies.

The organisation I work for uses PRINCE2 and puts everyone through the requisite courses to gain the necessary qualifications. Before you can take the PRINCE2 Practitioner exam, you have to take, and pass, the PRINCE2 Foundation exam.
The firm we use is SCC, and while I dont know whether they will let you just take the exams, the link below will take you to their website so you can contact them and find out.
One thing to remember, when you do become PRINCE2 Practitioner qualified, you have to take a re-qualifying exam every three to five years to retain your certification.

Hi,
Why not go to www.apmgroup.co.uk - they provide the accreditation for Prince2
or http://www.ogc.gov.uk/index.asp?id=1000829 - the owners of Prince2
or http://www.usergroup.org.uk/ - this is the UK user group for best practice (Prince2, M_o_R etc...)
Hope this helps
