Mega Electronics (www.megauk.com) do 0.8mm photoresist board, but only in big sheets
RS (rswww.com)also do thin photoresist laminates, e.g. 159-5802 for a DS eurocard in 0.8mm.
Also 0.4mm thick stock no. 292-6948.
The RS stuff is made by a French company called CIF, http://www.cif.fr/ who also make photoresist
PCB in a variety of thicknesses and materials including  teflon & flexi & Alu clad
