@Carmella002 Since you want some extra power and your budget can accommodate it, I would suggest getting a laptop with an Nvidia RTX 4060. It's significant overkill for Sims 4 by itself, but that gives you some overhead to account for ReShade and any high poly custom content you might install. And options with the slower, but still sufficient, RTX 4050 are not much cheaper, so it's probably worth the extra £50-100, depending on the model.
At any rate, please look at these and let me know what you think:

These are the cheapest good-quality options I could find with an RTX 4060. They're all a reasonable price, at least once you add the discount code to the last one, and they should all be equal in performance, plus or minus a few percentage points for how the manufacturers have tuned these models. The first one does run somewhat loud under load, but it shouldn't be a problem if you wear headphones. (And all standard gaming laptops are going to be a bit loud; it's just a matter of degree.)
If there are any particular details you don't like about these, let me know what, and I can do a more targeted search. And if you have more questions, about these or in general, please feel free to ask.
