Prior Planning?

OK now ive decided to go down the LILA route, £18,629.87 of debts i was wondering what i need to do before hand.
I'm waiting for my CAB appointment.

Ok from reading threads i know i need to open a basic account at the Co-op.
Ive changed my home phone number with EGG to my mobile to avoid lots of calls.
My nationwide account is in the black so i have cancelled my overdraft facility from £650 to £100 but i guess that account will close when i go BR?
Anything else i should do??
thanks
