I'm probably biased as I used to work at Heart Internet but it's a great company and the support staff know what they are doing if you ever have a problem. The packages are pretty good value for a UK web host and I didn't have any issues with them after I left the company (still used them for hosting a year after). I moved to Media Temple purely due to cost as I was paying £34 a month for the reseller which I'm now only paying £12 a month for. But media temple has been up and down since I joined and I do regret leaving Heart for them. Have a look at the Free web hosting that heart offer. It gives you a small amount of webspace with a small amount of bandwidth allowance, but also gives email boxes. http://www.heartinternet.co.uk/free-web-hosting.html is the place to go. It's normally hidden away on the website. If you do sign up for this, you will be asked if you want to buy hosting during signup but once you have signed up then you won't be bothered by the staff to upgrade.
