In the UK small jobs are legal unless in the bathroom or kitchen or outside. In which case you need to be a competent person or have the work checked by a competent person. (Building Regs.)

Having said that, as the Op clearly does not understand how a lighting circuit works I'd recommend and electrician
too.
