240v footswitch...

Just the switch? Or case as well?

Most footswitches are rated at 250v and an amp or so, and you can get latching and momentary action types.

Try yer maplins/farnell/rs components etc.

Ahhh. 'Momentary action'. That must be the terminology I lacked!

Find an old sewing machine? Perhaps try a sewing machine shop for a cheap used one?

Enter "foot switch" in the search box - produces several.
