If you want it to match birch ply kitchen fronts - I was thinking 4 or 6mm birch ply sheet which might cost £150-200 or so these days. add a solid core blank door say £100 add joinery costs for gluing it and lipping the edges.
Actual veneer doors are available in crown cut birch here - but might not match your fronts - guess you'd have to see a sample. https://www.doorpac.co.uk/product/doors-doorsets-internal-fire-rated-acoustic-certifire/veneered-flush-doors-architectural
Or might be worth looking in a local jewsons - these premdoor blanks look like birch ply but you'd have to see one IRL https://www.google.com/search?q=birch+veneer+door&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj9oqjOvuH1AhWOXsAKHRIJB-QQ_AUoAnoECAEQBA&biw=1354&bih=1338&dpr=1#imgrc=JvPq1gXx30kXnM

Ended up finding a suitable ply door blank in MP Morans and they cut it to size. The builders have whacked it right in today which was something of a surprise but no complaints. It needs a decent amount of finishing/oiling. Assume the process is just going through the grades of sandpaper to achieve the desired finish then applying an appropriate wax oil? I've got Osmo clear matt that I used for my floorboards which is presumably the best bet? Also have danish oil for worktops... any advice gratefully received!

Thanks, will look into it. I don't suppose you have any idea off the top of your head what a door's worth of high quality ply laminate might be likely to set me back? Budget is very much a motivating factor here...
