I can't speak for individuals, or small companies, but training
locally is sparse on the ground from the big suppliers.

Exeter University were offering GNU/Linux training. Beyond that I
think there are companies in Bristol with extensive experience.

I would agree with John, outsource it to an extent, take some of
that money saved by switching and splash it on a company to provide
some support. You don't have to switch to Redhat to do this, which
is where I diverge from John.

When you are talking about 200 servers, you need some pretty good
general IT management skills independent of the technology, but you
may have that already.

I certainly know people and companies who'd be interested, but here
is not the place to discuss specifics.
