Is it sticking or does it just need adjusting up? Is the biting point really low down?

It's a doddle to adjust it up so you might as well try that first. Look under the bonnet and locate your clutch arm, the end of the cable is threaded and goes through the arm, you just need a prybar or similar to push the clutch arm back then screw the white plastic bush clockwise a few turns. Release the arm then jump in and give it a try, if it's still no better, try giving it more turns.
