Hey and welcome to Steemit :)
Make sure you get Discord and go to the PALnet channel https://discordapp.com/invite/HYj4yvw
It was great for me as a new Steemian and there's loads of people that will be happy to help.
Also, check out what myself and others at #promo-uk are doing. We are working on getting more UK users to the channel.
Finally, there's also a #TeamGB started that is a bit of fun for SteemWars :) Check that out if you want to.
Enjoy!
