We're fellow Sky users here so you're not contacting Sky.

Usually after turning the phone on your taken through setup (language, time & date etc) eventually showing the choice to restore the phone from a backup/iCloud, transfer from your current iPhone via Wi-Fi or setup as a new phone.
Have you signed into your iCloud account?

Typically Apple expects customers to switch on their shiny new thing and follow screen-based guidance: there won't be any setup instructions from Sky.

 

Apple (and Samsung ) no longer ship chargers with new phones: there's typically a lead in the box intended to convert an older transformer plug, or you'll need to source a suitable unit yourself.

All you should need to do is to use the sim from your old phone in the new one.

 

If you need a new cable you will have to order one yourself as the likes of Apple no longer supply them.

Set-up:

Charging:

 

As part of our efforts to reach our environmental goals, iPhone models no longer include a power adapter in the box. iPhone continues to work with existing power adapters and USB-A to Lightning cables, such as those included in prior models. iPhone models now come with a newer USB‑C to Lightning cable that supports fast charging and is compatible with USB‑C power adapters and computer ports that you may already have. You can use either a USB-A to Lightning cable or the newer USB-C to Lightning cable with your iPhone.
