Advice on self Employment

Hi All

I'm currently on Esa and I'm looking to the future, need to have something to hold on to...
Anyway I have a HGV licence..which I should try and use go get back into a working environment afterall it cost me many thousands years ago to complete...

I really want to work for myself and not be employed by anyone thus I can cherry pick when I want to work

Now I am intending to registering with a few driving agencies and hope that they can throw some regular work my way... my question is so should I be a sole trader or a limited company, as some agencies expect it...

Anyone point me in the right direction.... ie the protocol for setting up a business ....Thanks in advance
