pay as you go sim, to use in a handset just to take incoming calls

Hi, I recently discovered new family members following a bereavement. One of them keeps asking through one of his siblings, via e-mail, for my mobile number. He is currently residing at Her Majesty's pleasure. I dont want to give him my only mobile number, and have a spare handset. How do I go about getting a "pay as you go" sim that I can use just for incoming calls. I dont want to have to keep putting money on it every month, as in top ups, cos I wont be making any calls on it. This way I can give him my number and get to know him without risk.

any ideas

@Gary-B

You'll need to top it up to activate it and then at least once evry 6 months.

Order one from here https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/sim-cards/pay-as-you-go

The £5 bundle is probably best.
