Wow ok, 30 years is around what I had. You'd be mad to give up that kind of pay-off imho. Understand, THEY HAVE to pay you that money IF you are made redundant. It's the law. Even the UK minimum redundancy is worth something but I'm sensing that like me your TUPE's Ts&Cs will involve some "proper" redundancy payments.
This is the UK minimum "Statutory Redundancy Pay"
Employees get:
• 1.5 weeks’ pay for each full year of employment after their 41st birthday
• a week’s pay for each full year of employment after their 22nd birthday
• half a week’s pay for each full year of employment up to their 22nd birthday
Length of service is capped at 20 years and weekly pay is capped at £525. The maximum amount of statutory redundancy pay is £15,750.

Defo worth investigating what they would have to pay you and defo worth asking if they would like you to go VR route.
