Default Assistance on small metal project? London UK

Hello,

Can anyone point me to a metal shop that could assist me with the
bending of brass channel? I have been beating my head against a wall
trying to bend small (3/8"x3/16") brass channel in a 1/2" radius (the
hard way). I need some professional help at this point.

I have attempted the bending by hand with a wooden jig, wood's metal,
and pitch but seemingly cannot keep the metal from torqueing while I
bend it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
