I'm in south wales - Tonypandy.
Bought my first mini last week. It's 1994 cooper.

Not knowing anything about cars in general, I've been told to put twin 45 carbs on it, is there a kit that I will need to fit these?

I have so much I want to do but dont know where to go to have it done without being ripped off. Can anyone help?

I beleive the twin 45s will flood the engine with fuel, a standard 1275 engine will not benefit at all from this, you may even lose performance and definately economy.

Your cooper is probably injection being a 94? so there are further parts to convert to carbs etc.
Stick a stage 1 kit on it for £120 and try it from there.
