Without question you should. Any money you earn needs to be declared so you can pay vat on it.

Need to pay income tax on money earned, VAT is paid on items/services purchased.

Just give them a call and ask them http://search2.hmrc....actus/start.jsp

you may also want to check the contract of your employer to ensure there are no restrictions about other work that you do.

HMRC will have details about the permanent job, but i think its no need to disclose your freelancing work details with them.

I think you can just do a self-assessment form at the end of the year, so it's not too painful!
