Hi and welcome to the forum, the best way to do the foundation is over a weekend at a local radio club. The weekend costs £35.00 and thats for the exam. The ham licence is free now.
Where are you from?
Hope this is some use and I will look at some radio club links for you when I am home from work and post them for you...

First a big welcome along to QSO UK.
I'll post a link below.
Click on your area & then look for your local trainer.
Best advice would be to phone if a number is given, as emails can take a loooooooooooooooooong time to get replies some times.

Good Luck.
You could also contact your local club.
