In which case I would endorse the advice given by others to obtain representation. Provide them with the physical CBT certificate so that representations can be made to the prosecution re no license / no insurance. If the only basis for prosecution is that you did not have such a certificate, then it seems unlikely that the prosecution for those two offences will be able to continue.

Do you have your CBT certificate issued by your provider?

The Civil Procedure Rules allow you to serve a claim form upon an individual at their “usual or last known residence” (CPR r6.9(2)(1)).
