So I have finally completed the update of Dad's website onto WordPress - http://www.akbrickwork.co.uk 
 
The domain is registered with 123-reg and I have pointed the DNS to Vidahost's DNS. It seems this has propagated across the internet just fine. 
 
However in the 123-reg Control Panel, I set up adam@akbrickwork.co.uk and info@akbrickwork.co.uk to forward to dad's work Hotmail account. I have just run a test and nothing is being delivered. 
 
Now that the domain is pointing towards Vidahosts servers, would I need to set this forwarding up in my cPanel as opposed to 123-reg?

You need to setup the MX record for your domain,  if 123-reg are hosting the mail forwarder you may well need to point the MX record to them.

Being honest willay, you just confused me   
 
All I've done is deleted the forwarding in the 123-reg control panel, and set it up in the cPanel for Vidahost. Seems to be working!
