Need help planting shrubs in small UK garden

I'm looking for someone experienced in planting shrubs in a small urban garden. The project involves digging prepared beds, loosening soil, placing and spacing 4-6 shrubs, and applying mulch. I’d prefer native or drought-tolerant varieties suited to mild UK winters. Basic pruning of any overgrown branches is a bonus. I have the shrubs ready and labeled with their preferred sun exposure. Please bring your own tools and be mindful of keeping plants hydrated in the first few weeks. I’d like the work completed in a tidy, well-spaced layout with minimal disruption to existing plants.
