    Look on ebay for Isabella/Ventura poles - they should be the same. Hope this helps

    Try your local caravan dealer. If like mine they take in awnings  with exchanged vans and some after inspection I assume are found unfit for retailing as an awning, so the poles get salvaged and put in a tumble bin priced to sell.

    When we had our awning increased for a new van I kept a look ouy on Ebay and bought extra poles there.

    I don't know where abouts in the UK you are from Leo, but I know Jackson of Arley sometimes have spare poles on sale...

    Don't know which part of the country the OP lives, but if the intention is to caravan in the North and North West of Scotland where gales are frequent,  might be prudent to buy steel poles for your awning.  I always specify steel poles when buying my awnings and they have all stood up to the wildest Hebridean gales with no damage whatsoever. 

    Gales and strong gusts can play havoc with awnings using lightweight poles. On camping sites, I've lost count of the awnings with lightweight poles damaged by gales.
