Who can form a UK LTD?
A limited company can be formed by a single person who will serve as both the company's sole shareholder and director or you can have multiple people for different roles like shareholders, directors, PSCs, etc. Thus, you can open and run it either alone or with other people.
In the UK, anyone of any nationality can start a company. You don't even have to be a resident of the country to qualify. The only requirement for a UK company registration is a UK-registered office address, which can be a friend's or relative's address or a virtual office address.
