From Govt website

“You must send your biometric residence permit ( BRP ) back to the Home Office within 5 working days of getting your certificate of British citizenship. Cut your BRP into 4 pieces and put it in a windowless envelope. Include a note saying you're returning your permit because you've become a citizen.”

Missed this bit for some reason,
“ Include your name, date of birth and the document number (found on the front of the card) in the note.

Naturalisation BRP Returns

You’ll be fined up to £1,000 if you do not return your permit within 5 working days.”
