Fixing toaster question (UK mustachians especially please)

Hi hi,
I've got a 4 slice toaster and two of the heating elements have gone.
Here it is
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Morphy-Richards-242006-Accents-Toaster/dp/B00MAFPL3E/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_201_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=DKF4R7CGT0T460FWE4BN
I'm happy to replace the elements with working parts, but I can't find any for that specific model.
Oh great internet, can you help me in my time of need with somewhere online I might be able to get some?
Thanks

This site says you can fix it instead of replace it.

Have you tried phoning Morphy Richards themselves - they appear to have a UK Spare Parts phoneline?

I'm not in or from the UK, but I fixed a blown heat element in our toaster. Over time the thin wires can crack. It is a simple matter to stretch the curled wire slightly and twist the broken ends together.
It's worked for several years since then...
