As of today, RIPE membership will give you a single /32, tagged "PA"
(to be used for ISP-alike networks and their customers).

The proposal 2006-01 is currently in last call.  If it passes, you can
get one or more /48 networks, tagged "PI" (provider independent, to
be used by the requesting organization) from the RIPE NCC.

Depending on the size of your individual locations, you might want to
consider using a mixed strategy, though - use static space (PI) in the
big (and/or multihomed) locations, and provider space (PA) for the
smaller offices.  Yes, renumbering is work - but injecting extra routes
in the global system causes global cost, so the tradeoff should be 
seriously considered.
