Simplest way would be to cap off the 2 pipes as close to the wall as possible , this would mean draining the system and rad enough to cut the pipes before capping . Kop

Thanks for the advice Kop. To avoid draining the whole system, wouldn't I be better off clamping the flexi pipes close to the wall? Also, what material would I need for capping the flexi pipes please? the pipe is 10mm. Thanks again

No you need to cap them there use 2 x 10 mm hep2o caps , you will also need 2 x 10 mm pipe supports most plumbers merchants keep them.
