Have a look at www.soundreduction.co.uk they have a list of local suppliers
on their site... we used www.trimacoustics.co.uk
we used maxiboard for party wall (can be used for ceilings too) and
acoustilay on floor. Haven't moved into room yet to comment on how well it
works, but it comes with a government standard measure on how much the sound
is reduced. Much cheaper to install yourself if you're up to it (£30/m2
compared to £130/m2 to have it installed.

I recently did some work on a converted 1st floor flat. When we had to
remove part of the ceiling we found that a falce ceiling had been put
up with joists running in between the existing upper floor joists. So
that and body walking upstairs is not walking on your ceiling..if you
know what I mean. This arrangement works very well. This means that
the upper floor joists are not connected with your ceiling, added to
this insulation was draped over my ceiling joists then with
plaster/board and skim finish..
