Does anyone know if prior coding knowledge is required to run a Shopify store effectively? If so, what coding language does Shopify use and can anyone point me in the right direction as to where to start learning please.

Shopify empowers non-coders to create and manage online stores proficiently. While basic HTML/CSS awareness is advantageous, it's not mandatory. Additionally, you can always employ a developer to make the necessary coding adjustments, customization, and troubleshooting while you concentrate on your areas of expertise.
However, if you want to learn coding, head to Shopify Academy. These resources are incredibly valuable to simplify the learning curve for you.
